I would have just used wired tether...

Never had a problem with ANY android device I've connected to my g1.

I just like to keep things simplistic in specific situations...

[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:
i searched everywhere and cannot find a solution to the problem. my weather isn't updating and my gmaps isn't locating me either. a couple observations..

1)weather does update when im connected to wifi

2) i tried different methods people used in the forum like - disabling my location, soft reset, plug into activesync, and re enable (doesn't work). i also tried going into settings>connections>connections>manage existing connections> and checking the access point name. (doesn't work). also, using advanced config>gps>turning off gps logging and setting size to 0. (doesn't work)

3) i tried flashing different radios and eventually running a task29 to see if that would fix it. nothing.

im starting to lose hope if ever fixing it. anyone please helpp
[HD2 General] isharma:
OK, i just fixed mine today, it had been showing the weather in the 20 F's and it's up to 80s here in fl. so .... i kept messing with it and I ended up accidentally pressing that little timestamp to the upper righthand corner with the circled arrows. See if that helps?
[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:
nope, didnt seem to work. the arrows just spin and spin and nothing ever updates. any other ideas?
[HD2 General] DrewVL:
how about run your gps and let it detect your gps hardware and also allow it to detect your location?

(if not can you exchange it with a new one and test it out from the store?)

Guys please help this guy out!!
[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:
when you say "run your gps", you mean like enable gps in google maps and let it detect? ya i did that and it works fine, with it off, its still supposed to get me a location by the towers or somethin'. with gps on or off, my weather still doesn't update :confused:

im running the cell rom and hspl and feel extremely lazy undoing everything just to do an exchange. plus no t-mobile has inventory.... i work there.. so i know lol
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Yes, your location and weather won't update until it can find your location via at least aGPS. You're saying that you can open google maps and get a satellite locked position? The next thing to check is that in both your WM GPS settings and your google GPS settings, you have them set to "managed by windows"
[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:
yes i can open google maps > settings and use gps. it will fix my location perfectly. but weather still doesn't update. i checked the gps settings in google and its set for "managed by windows". still nothing.

i even tried in a new sim card at work, still nada :mad:
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Hmmm. What does it show in your device GPS settings (all settings-system-external GPS-"programs" and "access" tabs)? And, also in your location settings (settings tab-location)?
[HD2 General] dkb218:
My location [weather] is not updated by GPS. Its updated by cell towers. The only way I know of fixing this problem is to try different radio roms.
[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:
yes the com settings match. and Google does locate my position. weather still no update. i would have to agree that it has to do with the radios. anyone know of a radio that works?

I'm on 2.08.50.xxx radio
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Yeah I know, but whenever I hard-reset, I don't get my location to update until I go into gmaps and get it to achieve a lock, then my location updates immediately after that.
[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:
ya i just tried that. and still nothing :(

i hard reset the phone and opened gmaps, let it get my location by gps, then hit home (kept gmaps running) and went to weather tab, and still nothing. i even flashed 2.10 radio and same stufff.

keep em comin' haha
[HD2 General] bachviet:
Is your aGPS setting enable?
[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:
where is the aGps setting?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
settings tab > location

make sure that both the aGPS and the Location Service Setting switches are set to "on"
[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:
oh ya, thats the first thing i did.

any other ideas? maybe flashing radios?
[HD2 General] littlebigkid:
From "Home" , go to "setting" tap on "location" , MAKE SURE to check the "HTC location service" ON , that how I get my to work.

[HD2 General] ttxcsabby:

Updated 5/26/10 with new version supporting Fresh 2.1.2. See Here for download.

Some people were talking about doing this, so I wanted to see if it was possible, turns out it is :p.

That was fast :). You win for being the fastest typer. Not sure of the value, but wanted to see what it might take to do. Any interest out there for this? It does give more room for other "stuff" if nothing else.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nebenezer:

I dislike redundancy (clock widget AND time in the taskbar), will you be sharing this one?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thatjerk:
You care to share?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Fills the whole taskbar:
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mountaindont:
metamorph?!

puhleeeeaaaasssseeeee?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
It's an edit to a framework .jar file, and my .jar file has additional edits for the white taskbar/notification menu, so it's difficult to distribute.

I could probably do 2 versions. One if your notifications drop down menu is stock, another if it is AOSP style, and thus has some font/button tweaks, like mine.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
It doesn't have to be a MetaMorph for this change, as we are not updating a handful of files in an apk/jar file. In this instance, we are replacing the whole thing.

That is one of the challenges in distributing.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Jus10o:
what jar file and what smali file and whats the line?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thatjerk:
Exactly what I was trying to ask. You asked it better. I would like all the the devs to have this in their toolbox ASAP!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] fixxxer2008:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
Lol looks like I inspired you this morning. I think I know where its at. Pm me more info.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Indeed. Couldn't leave it with all the extra space. Aesthetically, it was killing me. Figured there had to be a better way :p.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
Haha nice. Its in the .same .smali file, isn't it?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Jus10o:
He just changed the text from "phone" to "john".. Its more of a visual thing, to make his rom personal.

Remember back in the day on older cell phones. When you could change the greetings of the phone to say what you want. It was a text on the bottom of the screen. Haha
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Okay, attached is a flashable zip for removing the clock from your taskbar. This should be fine for 90% plus of users out there who are running Sprint based ROMs.

The only people who should NOT use this are those who are running the AOSP style notification window on a Sprint ROM, where the 'clear' button has been changed to white, from black, as this will undo that change.

I will post another update zip shortly for those users (which includes myself).

Nandroid before flashing. This updates a core framework file, and as such, your initial boot will take a while.

Edit: Here is the version for those running the white AOSP style notification window with the white 'clear' button:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] danaff37:
Don;t know if you knew, but metamorph can replace a single file within a jar, so wether it be just in an zml or the dex, don't have to change the taskbar icons
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
The .jar file in question only contains a .dex file, nothing else, so it's 6 of one, a 1/2 dozen of the other. I'm only changing 1 file that involves no graphics at all.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Just updated the previous post with the second version, for the small group of people that meet both conditions of using a white AOSP style notification pull down menu, with the white 'clear' button (see above).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
Was it StatusBarIcon??
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tejasrichard:
Would you mind sharing what you did? I'd like to try this myself.

BTW going to flash the AOSP drop down with your clear button fix and no clock mod. Did I mention GREAT WORK
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Great, thanks for the confirmation.

I'll provide an update later (headed out), in terms of the process.

So if I were ever so ungrateful as to want to reverse this, I MEAN if my g/f doesn't like it after I sneak it on her phone, I can just push the stock .jar back into framework?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Thanks. Indeed, just backup your stock .jar file and push it back if you want to undo.

Where do we change the "text" at?

I think it would be great if we (I) could do that!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
JsChiSurf,

On a scale of 1-10 how difficult would it be to rearrange the order of the icons?

For example instead of the alarm being first from the right let the battery be farthest right.

thx
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] riggsandroid:
Any way to make us happy? LOL. I'm thinking right justified for all icons.... :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Not sure. I can't imagine that it couldn't be done. Just a matter of taking the time to investigate. The hardest part sometimes isn't the actual mod, it's finding the location of where it's controlled.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] 4SidedDie:
Yeah actually, I havent charged it since last night when I flashed it.

Im at about 78% still with a lot of texting and constant checking FB and my emails

Im looking at about 15 hours honestly but given the 6 hours I slept its about 9 with just a 22% drop

Before my battery would last about 3 hours with all the **** I do
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
ROFL ROFL No way in hell will this mod increase battery life. LOLOLOL Modifying .xml's and .smali files have nothing to do with it...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] daryelv:
I put my phone in the freezer overnight and now I'm getting excellent battery life....

You see... the cold allows you to compress more electrons into the LiPolymer battery, leading to more WHr available...

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Once the final confirmed sprint version is released, I will be taking a look at redoing all the mods I've posted, over time.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] vrundmc:
can't wait for it now that 2.1 is official!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Coming soon... With a deodexed ROM, it is much easier to make these mods. In the current 2.1 configuration, it is much more difficult (though not impossible), and takes a lot more work to pull off (more steps, etc).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
JCS,

I'm trying to learn from this mod.

Any chance I can get a heads up on which smali file(s) you edited for this?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
I'd have to dig. However, the clock mod is VERY different and won't help much as it relates to affecting other icons in the taskbar. This is because the other elements in the taskbar are graphical icons, as opposed to displayed text (clock). So, whatever needs to be done, for example, to remove the battery, will be a very different approach ;).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
Thanks!

What I really wanted to see was HOW you removed the clock stuff. I'm guessing there is a process that reserves that space in the notification bar and I wanted to see what you did you make it disappear, ie. commenting out or changing variables.

I am also guessing the battery indicator in the taskbar is controlled by more than one smali... is that likely?

If anyone gets bored and wants to help me learn a thing or ten about editing smali's please let me know :D
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] typeadam:
1. how do I adb pull my original .jar

2. how to I adb push my original .jar if I want to restore the clock

??

Thank you,
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] whiteonline:
If you're not going to create a flashable zip:

adb pull /system/framework/services.jar .

adb push services.jar /system/framework

adb reboot
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] whiteonline:
JCS,

Can you provide the original and modified StatusBarIcon.smali?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Update for Fresh 2.1.2

Okay, attached is the clockless taskbar mod redone based on the most current services.jar file pulled from the deodexed Fresh 2.1.2 ROM.

While others have found that the previous mod worked fine for the 2.1.x based ROMs, there is no guarantee that the file did not change between releases, and as such, it is best to base the mod off of the most current file, which is what I have posted below. This is an update zip, to be flashed via recovery.

Download Clockless Taskbar <--- Flash via recovery

Note: This updates a framework file, causing dalvik cache to rebuild. Initial boot will take a while.

There seems to be a lot of confusion on various threads regarding the activation of a Sprint Touch Pro on Verizon lately. Has anyone done this in 2010 successfully? I would like to get a TP to use on Verizon, but I know the Sprint version is better. Thanks in advance!
[Touch Pro CDMA] rodwerx:
They Don't Want To

If your a current customer you may be able to get them to agree to let you use a Alltel Touch Pro, which can be bought used or Brand New from sellers on ebay.

The Alltel unit is identical to the Sprint Touch Pro, except for the Rom and the ESN series.

Good Luck.;)
[Touch Pro CDMA] egzthunder1:
There are already enough threads dealing with this topic. Please use them rather than opening new ones. Thanks.
[Touch Pro CDMA] martyxng:
Nice! I never heard that Alltel TP was the same as Sprint. That might be easier to activate since Verizon now owns Alltel! Now I just need to try to work it without a data plan! And using an Alltel phone on Verizon right now would use all of Verizon's towers, and Alltels combined, wouldn't it?

This site is EXTREEMLY duboius

This site is not a trusted site for information. If the $199 price point is accurate I will be extreemly happy, but honestly I am expecting to hear $249 on May 19, 2010.
[EVO 4G General] Sb22:
May 19th, 2010? Just wondering if you read that date somewhere or if you are just speculating? The "rumor" I believe Engadget was stating is a potential release date of June 6th or 13th. May would be wonderful, but I'm not holding out too much hope for that date as of now...
[EVO 4G General] keatre:
That's the release date for the phone. The speculated full spec/price/plan information / media blitz is rumored to start in mid-May.
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
I heard June 6th or 13th?
[EVO 4G General] keatre:
Again, June 6th/13th is the release of the phone to sale to the public. Mid-May is when the rumored date that Sprint will release all pricing/plan/formal release date.

In short, May is when Sprint will start pushing the device to the public, letting us know when it will be released, how much it will cost, and the plan details for it.

June 6th/13th will be when the phone is released so that you, me and John Doe may purchase it.
[EVO 4G General] Sb22:
FroYo (Android 2.2) is expected to be announced on May 19th as well. I'm curious to see the upgrade path for the EVO 4G to Android 2.2. Hopefully it won't be one of those endless waits for an upgrade. Maybe they'll switch to 2.2 last minute before release(probably not...:()
[EVO 4G General] keatre:
This is very unlikely, and has been discussed quite a bit. The Evo will be shipping most likely with a modified version of 2.1 that supports 4G, however --

The Evo team has been rumored to be working very closely with FroYo, and will support it upon its release. The Evo, although not shipping with 2.2, will receive the update in a very timely manner (after the N1, of course)

Gotta remember this is Sprint's flagship device, and Dan's baby - there is no way they're going to let this thing fall behind in any way of any other device.
