Find the patch here:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=782242

I mentioned this in another thread:

Prior to installing the patch I was getting only 4-6 satellites with a 50-100m accuracy (on a clear day) and I would constantly loose lock. I actually had to write down directions (so early millennium)!

Well after a quick nandroid, I decided to take the plunge and install the patch and guess what, it works great! I get 10 satellites (in my car) with a 30m accuracy in the cup holder. If I move the phone to the dash I get a 16m accuracy. Satellite lock within a few miles of driving and not a single loss of lock. And this was all on a cloudy, rainy midwest commute.

(first topic, so don't lambaste if its a repost. did a search no one to my knowledge has tried it)

[edit] Running JM5 international ROM, maybe useful for stock ROMS, already incorporated into SRE
[Captivate Android Development] vijtable:
Before diving in, can anyone confirm that they've had the same experience?
[Captivate Android Development] pkley:
The files didn't work for me, I tried them when they were released.
[Captivate Android Development] ajayendra:
OP, what firmware version were you on before?

Also, did you try cognition 2.1.X and copare your new results with that?

Please be detailed what you are comparing to.

Thanks...
[Captivate Android Development] docflower:
the vibrant fix seemed to work for me. i am however sitting outside not driving. ill test it out later with driving around. did 5 tests with an average lock time of 10 seconds. im using 2.1.4 cog rom.
[Captivate Android Development] hashish16:
I am using JM5 with the captivate kernal which I have only used from day one. I have no lag fixes or any other mods installed. i have not tried SRE because I want to run the I9000 roms (i think this is the reason why I am still able to use my MediaNet unlimited internet and messaging, so I don't want to try an at&t roms).

I have had my phone for almost a month now and I have never been able to use the gps reliably with any of the international roms. I stuck to JM5 because I get the best D/U speeds.
[Captivate Android Development] LinuxNewb:
I'll definitely try this because the international Galaxy S firmware and ROM I'm using isn't doing too well as far as GPS capabilities.
[Captivate Android Development] ajayendra:
Installation aborted...

(On Cog 2.1.5 with Voodoo and HSUPA)
[Captivate Android Development] SnakeHaveYou:
It's not working very well for me on 2.1.5..
[Captivate Android Development] hashish16:
This is my first topic, so I was a little short on the details.
[Captivate Android Development] id10terrordfw:
I had an issue with that at first, let me post up my settings. It would not lock on any sats with the google SUPL and only see one. The settings had carried over from previous nandroid backup.
[Captivate Android Development] ht128:
Yes it does work. i couldn't even get a lock on my gps before and now i'm getting 5-6 locked with 9 detected. I installed the patch on my Captivate yesterday and did a 35 miles test drive going home from work where there only 3 times where the gps lost signal. This morning i didn't get any lost signal at all.

firmware info:

version 2.1

i897ucjh7

kernel version 2.6.29 jetaek.lee@sep-11 #2

Here's the gps settings:

Application settings:

Session Type: Tracking

[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
You guys on Cog 2.1.5, I have the GPS files from JI4 in there, no need to add this in, wont help if its not working for you ;)
[Captivate Android Development] hashish16:
I have sky hook on and using supl.google.com

I tested this on my 25 miles drive last night from work, and the same commute this morning for 12 miles but then my battery died because I didn't charge it last night.
[Captivate Android Development] xyrovice:
Thanks for clarifying. About to flash .5 here in a bit.
[Captivate Android Development] hashish16:
I didn't realize that, and I couldn't find any posts regarding it (maybe if I really really really searched hard) so this is good for international roms and maybe stock roms
[Captivate Android Development] CLShortFuse:
agpsd isn't used for the Captivate

Captivate uses glgps_samsungJupiter

You can't just copy files over and assume it'll magically work.

The only file you're changing is libsecgps.so
[Captivate Android Development] LinuxNewb:
What is really funny is the "config type" I've always done automatic and after a reboot on a cold lock it'll take 10-30 seconds but then on a warm lock it'll take 3-5 seconds which is WAY better than most of these fixes...

Once I get my phone back to 100% I will try this method and my old config.
[Captivate Android Development] exparrot:
I've been futzing all morning with this, and I had just updated the jupiter.xml to v003.

didn't help.

I then installed this patch, updated the SUPL settings to the google server, and supl instead of control plane, and got my first 7/7 lock.

Don't know which did the trick, or how long it will last.

I'm flying from NJ to California today, so it's going to be interesting to see if the phone can pick up the gps birds from a new location.

keep up the good work!
[Captivate Android Development] CLShortFuse:
I take what I said back. It seems like libclientgps.so is a renamed libgps.so and it's highly important. Good stuff. There's a JI5 now. We should use those files. I don't find any agpsd references so I feel like we're missing something in this package.
[Captivate Android Development] biggem001:
running stock fully upgraded firmware and have FULL GPS supprt,with these settings. within 5 meters, 20-30 seconds to find MAX
[Captivate Android Development] hashish16:
Its been about 4 days since I've been using this fix and I have had no problems finding a lock within 10 seconds with a 10-30m accuracy depending on where in my car my phone is. Haven't tried walking around though.
[Captivate Android Development] skinien:
A billion is a lot. That's awesome :p
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickdeal:
I was in the middle of using odin to flash back the stock rom when it froze. Now all my phone will do is display an image of a phone and pc connected by dots and a yield sign in between. Is my phone dead?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sllyboy612:
There's a video on youtube on how to fix it. Don't know if i can post a link but his user name is TheVoiceofAndroid and video is Samsung Vibrant UN-Brick Fix
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maximus-dev:
Hey folks, so here's a basic summary of what I've done up to now...

Rooted... have Rom Manager, etc...

Flashed JH7 OTA with Clockwork. Worked nicely. Set some things up, happy at this stage so I made a backup.

Decided to try Cognition, was 2.1.4. Had some trouble with a few things.

Disabled lagfix, simple enough.

Flashed to a backup made when I was on regular JH7.

So to the question... when I go to About in Settings, my Kernel still says

atin@thor #Voodoo_lagfix_3.0_v1.9.

Shouldn't the Kernel have converted back when I restored/flashed my backup?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
Clockwork won't reflash your kernel (unless it's a package with included kernel) however the voodoo kernel you currently have on your phone operates the same as a stock kernel until you remove the disable-lagfix folder. Cognition 2.1.4 does utilize that version of the kernel to enable init.d scripts for things like MobileAP to function
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maximus-dev:
You just have all the answers don't ya?

Thanks again, really appreciate it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
Haha I do my best to stay informed around here :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Karooluss:
I wonder if Your Droids takes better pictures after updating to froyo?? Now I have got Europe Milestone with 2.1 :( and I'm not very happy with camera quality. Photos have got a lot of noise and the quality is 3/10 :(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] jr313:
Yes the pic quality imo has gotten way better i have the droid 1 and the difference from 2.1 to 2.2 is very noticable it even cleared up old pics that i had stored on my sim card..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Karooluss:
Could You give some samples before and after FROYO ??
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] haksam:
i think you are confused with the overall subject.

on the previous eclair 2.1, the gallery displays the picture without the actual resolution, so its all blurred out (just like when the browser is slowly rendering the pic and stops half way), if you bothered to copy these pics to your pc and access them again, you will find they were in high resolution.
[Vibrant General] 30Glock:
After a total brick, Black screen. I am convinced that this phone is truly un-brickable, I did not ask for help. All you need to do is READ READ READ! Having said that I would like to thank eugene and everyone else for the usefull tips.
[Vibrant General] MrGibbage:
Congratulations! It is widely believed that this phone is about as close to being unbrickable as any phone out there.

Would you care to share how you got your phone working again? It's possible that someone might actually read this instead of asking, in which case you can forward the cause :)
[Vibrant General] TheSneakerWhore:
Yea--DO SHARE!!!

I wrecked my phone somehow and have not been able to reflash a stock rom no matter what...I have a few days before I have to ship it back with to the warrantee center--I'd love to try and fix a HW locked phone.
[Vibrant General] ookas:
this is true, unless u have a hardware locked phone, in that case, ne thing can brick ur phone easily
[Vibrant General] watcher64:
That is not entirely accurate, I "bricked" my phone, and I have a hardware locked vibrant, seems download mode can be gotten into with some due diligence("due diligence"=Don't panic and read read read) .
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
I have a hardware locked phone, obviously I read the threads. I cannot get into download mode - at all. No recovery.

If you're bad at pressing key combinations on your hardware unlocked phone, that's okay. You will eventially get it and then post how you got your hardware locked phone into download mode, I'm sure (hint, take off the back cover, makes pressing the buttons trivial).

Don't spread misinformation.

Hardware locked phones will not let you get into download or recovery mode. They will just power cycle over and over again if you try to hold keys down while the phone is booting up. You can try evey combination immaginable and one of two things will happen:

1. It will power cycle indefinitely (if power button held down) to the Vibrant Logo (turns off and on to that screen forever).

2. It will get stuck at the Vibrant Logo and never move (if the Volume Buttons held down). Will get to Vibrant Screen and stay there.

If you let go of all the buttons, it will just boot up normally (if it can, or get to a black screen if you bricked it /shrugs/).

I know. We tried for 3 hours in the store and I stayed up half the night trying. There's no way to get there, Lol. Seriouly: No way.

T-Mobile says it's a known issue. Asurion knows of the issue. Samsung knows the issue (issued a patch for Canada, but no one else IIRC). All 3 told me the only recourse is to get my phone replaced.

And that's what I'm doing.

I doubt you will get charged for bricking a hardware locked phone, because the manufacturer will have to flash a new ROM onto the phone anyways - at a repair factory.
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
Mine is locked, but I got into recovery mode via terminal app connected on USB.
[Windows Mobile] NIKOSXRI:
My theme in LEO was working perfectly up to 3.04 and 2.14 roms until i made a 3.14 leo tmus rom.

Now there is no boxes but only letters in the bottom bar and nothing almost nothing in the pivot background bar.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
That has happened to me if I used an old .tsk file with a new build line. The png's don't always have the same name from one build line to the next. The solution is to use the new .tsk file or use the old png files with the old tsk file.
[Windows Mobile] NIKOSXRI:
My theme up to now was in a cab file with the tsks and pngs and worked well.Maybe is the build because now i see 23133 has 327 reg entries in tsk and i have 326.

I will check but the cab uses old pngs with old tsks.

I tried also to cook the cab but the same thing happened.

Thanks.

I see now that my registry settings in tsk are not applied when i select my tsk in home tab and distort the classic blue tsk as well.

It happened to me again but i dont remember the cause.Pretty annoying.Maybe new sdk certficate?

What a fool....just messing up the forum with double posts and now starting the same topics...my god, how much attention do you want? If I become that lonely, you are allowed to shoot me :-)

I sent a mod a pm to close this thread, the forum really gets unorganized this way. Newbees have to go through several topics for the same things now. Unbelievable...

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] PollPixx:
Haha, you started this topic earlier as well, that is my point goof. What in the name of god is the point in starting a new thread where we will see the same widgets. As soon as the boot is cracked you don't talk to me like that anymore. For wm I made several themes based on graphics and I can't wait to start developing themes for android. So don't ask first several times for information and than react like this when you get critics. You have been ask several times not to double post nicely, but you choose to get this forum fu,cked up by making same posts, making same topics...no single person in the world will benefit from an unorganized forum....agree? Thanks.

[HTC Aria General] chrisjaffe:
I am new to Android and loving my Aria so far. The only thing that is really bugging me is the text input. I am having a little separation anxiety from my keyboard and it seems like I must be missing something. First I am using the swype keyboard but I don't think that is related to my question.

When you enter text into any input, say the body of an email in the gmail app, is there an easy way to go back and edit that text? I often find myself tapping 5 or 6 times to try to get the cursor back to the exact place that I need to edit and it gets really frustrating? On the iPhone when you want to edit text a search window pops up where your finger is and you can slide it back and forth to find the exact spot that you are looking for. Is there anything like this for Android?

Thanks for any feedback.

cj
[HTC Aria General] Ki77erB:
Slide your finger over the little track pad between the menu and back button at the bottom of the phone. (Its the small silver circle). I think some people think that is the microphone but its not.
[HTC Aria General] chrisjaffe:
Aaah. I did know that was an optical input but I did not even think of it. I rarely use it since scrolling and selecting is so easy.

Thanks,

cj
[HTC Aria General] porterj22:
Yes i hate trying to get the cursor back to edit a word glad someone asked

never thought about using the trackball sure makes things lot easier
[HTC Aria General] jbizz:
Optical TrackPad FTW!
[HTC Aria General] Anthony1s:
Even better than the optical trackpad, Smart Keyboard has an arrow layout option that let's you navigate text way faster. The board is real nice too.

first of all hello to everyone, I am new to this site.

i came across this site since i have been searching for ROM developments to my phone.

i see this is a very comprehensive site with ALOT of information and i dont even know where to begin.

So i hope someone nice here will answer a few questions :)

First of all, is it worth upgrading to another ROM (one of these sticky threads ROM)

I've been looking at the Artemis but again im not sure what to choose.

Also no idea how to upgrade it and if anything goes wrong is it possible to backup the original ROM?

I like to upgrade since im not very fond of the original ROM, also a bit slow from time to time.

I am not a computer noob :P just very new to this. Hope someone will help or point me in the right direction.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] campbell.0:
hi there.

I whole heartedly recommend flashing a custom rom to your phone. I only flashed my first rom earlier this year. there are plenty of tutorials here on xda. this really is a great community.

search in the threads for MSkip's guide to flashing your first HD2 rom. Just always remember to read instructions thoroughly.

Roms are down to personal taste but I personally like the Energy series.

good luck.

:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatevaUsay:
I was afraid to, but now I'm glad I did (flashed like 5 times now, till found the ROM for me) Just remember to read all the ROM info and instructions carefully and for the love of God, have the proper Radio version for the ROM OR ELSE YOU WILL BRICK IT!
