[Galaxy S I9000 General] Case_:
This is "factory default" JM5. One of my worst track recordings ever (but I've made many similar):

http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=U...8504,17.256206&spn=0.005851,0.013937&t=h&z=17

Blue line is the actual path walked (both directions).

There IS something very wrong with GPS on Galaxy, no question about it. Danying it won't make it go away. And there is enough people having those problems all around the web that I know it's not just my phone acting out.

On the other hand, there's quite a few people here saying things like "I've got satellite fix indoors, this GPS is great!" or "I've tested it with car navigation and it worked fine" who obviously don't really understand what they're talking about. No offense. Or "if I want precision, I would buy more expensive GPS" - well, as I've said on multiple occassions now, GPS in my 100€ Vodafone 845 (and before that in my HTC Magic) is perfect with pinpoint precision, why can't the GPS in 500€ Galaxy match it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rdy2go:
Omg it's terrible gps performance indeed.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
both my uk and bell galaxy using stock rom get Satellite fix indoors in less about 5 sec to pick up 3~4 satellites, then another 5~10 sec to lock from 4 sat to 8 sat using the gps test

you just need to stand by the window

no problems in the car or bike or walking

I got desire and wife has got sgs. I would never sell my desire for sgs. Preferred it when it was 2.1 now 2.2 miles better. Nothing she can do I can't, but loads I can do she can't. And I've got 720p. If you need a phone that works out of the box, go back to your desire, best phone in my opinion, every Android user wants my phone when we meet. I've never wanted another.

HTC

Smooth, quality build, full flash, streaming from pc, apps on SD,720p.

SGS

Bigger screen. That's it.

Better graphics only work if.phone don't freeze every 10th seconds. Honestly.

k so 2 weeks ago my phone stopped working, not gonna go into the details.

went to a tmobile store (usa) and they set up for me to recieve a refurbished hd2 through the mail and i send back the broken hd2 in the same box.

but my phone cant live off the battery for some reason so i cant remove the hspl, but also the screen doesnt turn on so you cant see that it is hspl'ed and it also wont be recognized by usb.

what is the worst htc can do if they find out it was hspl'ed. i can argue that i didnt know it voided warranty. a legit retail tmobile store called it in also. not me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilwilwel:
I wouldnt worry about this. Last month there has been a Court/Judge who said that its not against the law to change your phone.

That was adopted by most countries world wide.

With this GayApple cant brick "hacked" IgayPhones even MickeySoft can't brick the XBox360 if its "hacked" because that is now against the law.

Lets hope it wont get changed again by an other Judge

hi all

how to extract (nbh) file please help me
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilwilwel:
First welcome :)

Why do you want to extract the NHB file? Thats not neccesary to install the ROM.

To Install a custom ROM you need to install HSPL first. In te ROM section you find 2 threats which explains how to do that and which version you need. When you have finished that part, you have just have download CustomRUU (also found in one of the threats just use the search function of the website), place it in the same directory als de NSB file and run CustomRUU. The program tells you what to do next, just follow the steps who are displayed in te program.

Is you really wanna extract the NHB file. Then its usefull to wrinte down for what purpose you want to do this. In this case its always good to ask the Developer who build it for approval ;)

HI i just bought my phone from best buy HTC EVO 4G and im trying to do internet wifi tethering and i read that i need to do ROOT

CAN anyone give me steps how can i root my new phone evo 4 so i can use wireless tethering..

This is my phone detail

Android 2.2

Baseband: 2.15.00

Kernel: 2.6.32.15

Please help me , show me how can i do root (i have tried unrevoked does not work)

I really need this asap

Thank you
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zackhow:
You cant, you have to wait till someone finds a way to root 2.2. As of right now there is not a way.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hankbear:
Not to be rude, but you really should have searched, first. I can just about guarantee that others will not be so kind in suggesting you do the same.

However, in the interest of, perhaps, helping other searchers, Android 2.2 on the EVO cannot be rooted right now. We will all just have to wait until someone cracks it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superlinkx:
Also, tethering without paying is against your terms of service and technically stealing. Might want to just pay for the service, seeing as you can use Wired or Wireless tethering legally on the Evo. You can also just pay for the days you use it ($1 per day) by turning it on and off on your account.

So at this moment the android 2.2 can't be rooted?

Is there any other way to rooted this 2.2? or can i downgrade it?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1gh7m4r3:
Is there a specific section in the TOS that states that? Just curious as to if it's against the TOS is why your calling it stealing, or if it's just your personal opinion, Since everyone has payed for the hardware, and it is a capability of the phone, and you are paying for the data usage, just not seeing it as stealing personally.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ritzbrie:
I think he was thinking turning on the wifi tethering with Sprint then canceling Wifi tethering once you don't need it. Since the service is $30 a month, they prorate the charge to about a dollar a day.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ritalin:
I have my custom font working properly in FlipFont with icon and font preview. There is still some stuff to figure out, and i HOPE some one will help me out as I believe its a bit over my head.

It seems that the fonts in the MonoType apks on the market are digitally signed. I THINK this is what is preventing the use of any old font. I believe the FlipFont app is looking for the digital signature in the font within the APK. If its not there, it does not use the font and reverts to using the default font.

I managed to get around this by opening the MonoType font in FontCreater along with the monoglyceride font. I then copied all of the characters and glyphs from monoglyceride into the MotoType font, replacing characters and glyphs inside of it. I saved the font and renamed it. Went through the apk creation method listed below and it worked.

If you want to try this yourself grab the APK attached to this thread and edit it with Apk Manager 4.8 found here

Steps to preform

Copy apk into place-apk-here-for-modding folder

Run script.bat and choose option 9

replace monoglyceride.ttf with the .ttf font you edited in the the steps above

edit all XML, yml and smali files to include the font name or font.ttf depending on the entry in the original file. Just replace monoglyceride in all files with the name of your font

Edit the last folder name in the smali folder tree from monoglyceride to the name of your font

Replace monoglyceride font with custom font in the font folder and replace the preview image in the drawable folder with one of your own.

Compile apk

Sign apk

Rename apk

install apk on your phone

Other info and things Ill try next

Before going through the time consuming method of editing the .ttf font file listed above I wanted to see what would happen if I left the original font APK alone and just removed the all of the internal naming. This area contains things like the font name, vendor, license agreement, copyright, ect... After I removed those entries in the file, windows still showed it as Digitally Licensed, but the font FAILED when recompiled and installed in Android.

I am going to try moving these entries over to another font and try again. This may not work, because from what I have read about digitally signed font, editing them breaks the signing. There is hope that this is not true based on the fact that I DID edit the font (characters, ect..)and it still worked.​

I will try this tomorrow, its 5am here and I need to get to sleep. Glad I have no work tomorrow. :º)

Any font guys out there have any info on this?

Well here you go, here is my first custom FlipFont APK.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/b63fa44f7ks7e3d/com.monotype.android.font.monoglyceride.apk

Its working perfectly for me, but let me know if you have any issues.

[Vibrant Android Development] Novek:
Since I've read much about this in different threads (people who couldn't find out how to do it), I thought I could share some light on it in a separate thread...

For starters: DO NOT PARTITION YOUR SD CARD WITH ROM MANAGER!!! This will partition your internal memory, and will brick your phone... To get back to stock please follow this thread.

Okay... First off to the linux users out there. There already exists a very nice tutorial on how to partition a SD card in ubuntu(the steps will be very similar in other distros too). For the ones that want to use gParted, theres an live cd here.

For myself, and all the other windows users, read on ;)

1. Get yourself a copy of "Paragon Hard Disk Manager".

2. Install it through it's instructions.

3. Mount your SD card to your computer, and make sure it's recognized.

4a. Probably the fastest way: Go to "my computer", right click on your SD card, click format, choose FAT32 and format your card.

4b. Launch PHDM, and select "format partition", choose your SD card (next), choose FAT32 (next), "Yes, apply" (next) and your card is beeing formated to FAT 32.

Now your going to make the ext2/3/4 partition.

5. Go back to the main menu of PHDM again.

6. Click "create partition", choose your SD card (next), make the new partition size (I picked 1GB for my ext) and pick ext2/3/4 (next), "Yes, apply..."(next) and your card is partitioned and formated to ext2/3/4.

Good luck :D
[Vibrant Android Development] zephiK:
Or if you're like me and have a previous phone with Amon_Ra's recovery. Put the SD card that you're using in the Vibrant into the G1 and load into the Recovery and "partition sd card" and all you'll have to do is set up the size of the partitions. It'll take less than a minute to do this. Far more easier and im sure a lot of people from the Vibrant community were upgraders from the G1.
[Vibrant Android Development] MRCLrider:
And partitioning your SD card does what exactly?
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
The operation *apply changes* isn't available in demo mode. It cost 49.00?.........
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
Download a gpartd boot cd and use that. Free, open source, easy.
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
Allows you to use the data/cache to SD mod to speed up some stuff on the phone. For most of us, it has nearly eliminated the lag.
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
i tried this and its not as easy as you state. The instructions aren't clear either. I have blank CDs, added the file but it also says download something else which wasn't there. Whe you try to open the app from the cd, it doesn't know which program to choose to open it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Blue_Alien:
Ubuntu comes with a disk utility that is really easy to use.
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
You do know you have to burn it as a CD IMAGE not as a file, right? If you're on Windows, Infrarecord is free and works well. Linux and OSX come with software that can do it. Then you boot from the CD, there isn't a need to open an app, it should launch itself once booted. Then select the SD card and partition. It even formats the partitions for you.

It's not as easy as some, but it's a whole lot easier than fdisk. Free software is generally not going to be as "pretty" as paid stuff. If you want the pretty, pay for Partition Magic, Paragon, whatever, there's a few options out there.

[Vibrant Android Development] LovellKid:
Paid version (Thx Utorrent), but so just to clarify, so do I go straight from Fat32--> to Ext4 option? Or do I have to choose ext2, then create another partition (ext3), then ext4?
[Vibrant Android Development] toeshot:
You have to boot this cd once you burn it. Be careful not to partition your PC's hard drive
[Vibrant Android Development] Novek:
You can go straight from having the whole SD in FAT32 to partition your card to ext4 :)

i spent the better of the night trying to format my card. sandisk 16gb class 2.

i fire up PHDM after formatting the card through my computer. i keep getting an error message when i go through the create partition wizard saying that my external sd card has four different partitions including an extended one, which doesnt make sense because i just formatted it. ill attach a picture when i wake up.

i then tried to use paragon partition manager. my sd card shows up. yay. i proceed to create two primary partitions: 13.6gb fat32 and 1.5gb ext3. everything goes good. now, when i unmount my sd card, the phone then says that the external sd card is corrupted and that i need to reformat. reformatting takes me back to square one. 14.8gb fat32. i tried letting the phone format the memory card and then use ppm to do just a 1.5gb ext3 and success. it worked. i installed deodexed rom and saw that my boot time was 2-3 min as compared to the general 10-12 min i was reading about. downloaded quadrant and registered a beautiful 897. i also went to go put back all my files onto my memory card and it asks me to reformat the card. square one again.

last resort i used gparted. tried using 13.6gb fat32 and 1.5gb ext3 and gparted gives me an error saying it cannot complete it. i dont remember exactly the error because im not too familiar with linux.

if anyone has any ideas or alternatives that ive missed, please chime in.

EDIT: i tried using two different memory cards and they didnt work as well. there has to be something im either missing or doing wrong. =(

Can't believe none of you guys have a previous Android phone with Amon_Ra installed. It practically makes partitoning a SD card a joke.

Fellow rookie to rookie step by step guide

This is my first Android phone and really my first experience with “programming.” I am using a Windows 7 PC, a rooted phone and a 16GB class 2 external SD card. Here is my step by step guide to partition your external SD card (That is the one that has/had Avatar on it) using free software:

1.	Download and install the ISO recorder from alex fineman. Just Google “alex fineman iso recorder.” If you don’t have his program you will not be able to burn ”gparted live” as an image to a CD which is the next step

2.	Google “gparted live” and select the sourceforge site. Next select “To install GParted Live on CD, download the .iso file and burn it as an image to a CD.”

3.	I tried the most recent stable version but it would not load so I ended up using the most recent “Testing release” which worked on my Windows 7 PC

4.	Download the gparted-live-0.6.2-2.zip which will now have an ISO extension since you downloaded and installed the ISO recorder in step 1

5.	Open the gparted-live and follow instructions to burn a disc image

6.	Connect you phone and enable USB mass storage (I used my work BB rather than the Vibrant in case I messed things up. Others have recommended an old phone)

7.	Start your PC with the gparted-live disc in and get ready to hit the “esc” key to get into boot up. Select “boot from cd”, “gparted live default setting”, “don’t touch keymap”, 33 (for English), and “0”. You should now get the gparted-live interface and there should be two devices connected. Your PC and the phone with its external SD card

8.	Delete the existing SD card partitions but make double sure you are on the phone and not your PC before you do this. Next, create the primary, fat 32 partition and leave no more than 2 GB of space for the next partition. Create a primary, ext3 partition and select accept to create the new partitions. That is it. Exit gparted and reboot your computer without the disc

I did the repartitioning so I could apply the custom ROM from anomalous3 over in the development section. I would highly recommend his ROM as a next step in your development as the phone is incredibly fast after installing it. As I said, I am a 100% rookie but the phone is now blazing fast (over 1,400 from low 800 on Quadrant. I really have no idea what it means but the difference is fantastic). Best of luck to my fellow rookies/noobs/nbs/newbies
[Vibrant Android Development] genibus:
Step 6 is killing me... 6. Click "create partition", choose your SD card (next), make the new partition size and pick ext2/3/4 (next), "Yes, apply..."(next) and your card is partitioned and formated to ext2/3/4.

When I click Create Partition it is telling me that my SD card is not available to be partitioned because it the disk already has 4 primary partitions. My SD card has the 2gb internal partition and 14gb external partition, thats it... Any advice? It lets me delete the 14gb external partition but not create one :/
[Vibrant Android Development] CapitalM3:
I understand the reasoning for the partitions on the G1 since it had so little internal memory compared to the Vibrant.

Since the Vibrant has a good deal of internal memory what is the ext2/3/4 used for? Is it still storage for apps?
[Vibrant Android Development] zephiK:
It's used for mimocan's fix with ext2/3/4 to improve the I/O speed during benchmarks involving data-dalvik and data. However theres a RyanZX fix that doesnt need this. I'm just surprised at how many people in this thread don't have a previous device with Amon_Ra's Recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] s15274n:
^ agreed, used my G1 last night to partition a card.

That being said, I have no access to a computer for a while, is there anyway to upgrade my ext 3 to ext 4 and get my ext partition found on my phone, I've applied the hacks, but the phone still doesn't recognize my ext partition...sitting with the overclocked kernel with a measly 1100 quadrant score...thanks guys!

I have used Paragon to partition my SD card. In Paragon itself it shows the two partitions (FAT32 and ext2) but if I put the SD card in my phone it doesn't recognize the extra space it should have. It shows my card as 2.2 gb, which is what I partitioned the FAT32 as (a 4 gb card) with the available space for apps as 100mb. Where is my additional 1.5gb and why doesn't it recognize it? The ROM I am using does have Darktremor's Apps2SD built in (Krome v1.2). When I put the SD card in my computer and open it directly without Paragon there does not appear to be an additional ext2 partition and it shows the card as only 2.3gb. Again in Paragon it shows the appropriate values of 2.2gb FAT 32 with 1.5gb ext 2. Help, please.

*Update: I also booted in recovery mode and tried to partition my card that way. I had swap, ext2, and FAT32. Still isn't recognized by my phone.
