[Vibrant General] ZX3ZX4:
The GPS on my un-rooted Vibrant has been working quite well since the JI6 update. That update changed several of the dialer-accessed settings, and I haven't messed with any of them since the phone was finally working. I also didn't do the GPS Restore app because I figured why try to fix something that's not broken.

However, today, for the first time in two months, I couldn't get any locks. The GPS found a dozen satellites and showed normal signal strengths (25-40%) for the majority of them, but it kept losing and finding them, and got no locks. When I tried using Google Maps, it thought I was around Las Vegas (I'm in the Pacific NW), and the accuracy circle was probably 500 miles.

I rebooted the phone, but that didn't help. Then I decided to go into the GPS settings and found that there were two changes that I hadn't made: the Server FQDN type had switched from Auto Config to Custom, and the Server had switched from "h-slp.mnc260.mcc310.pub.3gpp" (which first appeared with JI6) to "www.spirent-lcs.com." I changed back to Auto Config, but didn't change the server, and re-booted. Then I went to the GPS Test app again and got a lock on 7 of 11 satellites in about 20 seconds with 20' accuracy.

Finally, I went back into the GPS settings: it was still set to Auto Config, but the Server had mysteriously switched back to "h-slp.mnc260.mcc310.pub.3gpp."

I had assumed that once I made a change to the GPS settings they stayed thay way unless I went back in to modify them, or I installed an update or the Samsung GPS Restore app. So, was this just some weird hiccup where my phone reverted to some old settings on its own, or what? I'm also curious to know what info is stored in the GPS Data Cache (which I've never cleared since I've had the phone)...in particular, could this be the source of the switched Server settings?
[Vibrant General] ZX3ZX4:
Right after posting this, I found that I have company: a number of other members posting in the "Vibrant Android Development" forum have also lost their GPS all of a sudden:

My friend's nexus one had a huge impact when they got 2.2...how about for us? Is there a big jump in speed?

on a side note..i updated my friend's sony ericcson x10 to 2.1 last night, and there was a huge difference! His browser was faster than mine!!!

Since i'm already asking questions (dont shoot me for this),,,but will gingerbread roms work for our phones?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dezshiz:
I think its a possibility that the nexus S rom may work..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bryant_16:
I see. True, alot people having problems even though they have updated to 2.2. Unlike people with update to froyo, they experienced huge speed difference.

What's wrong with froyo to galaxy s?

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Unrealwolf:
It was made by Samsung.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Animal06:
I will never ever buy another Samsung product unless this phone is recalled.

Lag, FC etc is a complete joke.

Great specs. Great intentions but phones a dud.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoking3:
Hi guys. I know the answer must be hidden somewhere but I have to make a quick decision about buying a Desire (I have a short term offer). So if I have a new Desire and I root it etc, then I should make a partition on the card of 512MB, using lets say Rom Manager. Then if I install a ROM containing A2SD+ , I should be able to install all the apps I want without worring about the internal storage, correct? Am I missing something?

Thank you very much ffor your time.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sh500:
The internal storage memory will still go down in size as some of the stuff still gets put in there. It just won't go down as much (or as quick) with A2SD+ enabled.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoking3:
And is it enough to have the generic rom from the Kitchen, containing A2SD?

EDIT: 2-19-2011 I will be attempting to port this to Liberty 1.5... Will see how it goes

UPDATE: 12/24/2010 I have had one or two people request some update/files on this, so I have attached the framework and facebook .apk files. I started working on porting a Tron theme for the X, so since I didn't have a lot of feedback, I had sort temporarily given up on this theme.

See the bottom of this post for the files!

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

UPDATE: 12/6/2010

Still working on updating this, I didn't have much time today =( Boot looped 2x today when trying to do more of the framework... Will give this another try tomorrow probably. Hope to have some more edits. Check back!

12/5/2010

So I'm working on porting over the black glass 24K theme I saw for the original droid using the ultimate droid rom/theme.

This will prob take me some time, as I'm brand new to the theme scene when it comes to creating my own. If you are interested let me know and I will post updates and post my work return I'm done.

Again, this may take some time as this is a just a hobby...

Thnx to.the orig creators of this! I need to find the names and update!

I take no credit for the originality of this theme, just wanted to try and make it available for the X.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ubermicro13:
I've never seen this theme before but it looks pretty sweet! I will definitely be trying it out. What ROMs are you thinking of making it for?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] mruno:
"I love gooooooold."
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SysAdmin-X:
This will probably just be for the stock OTA (2.3.15) until I get better with theming. Plus right now, that's what I'm running on my X.

I'm glad to see people are interested! I may need some help with some of the images, and will put out a request if necessary.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SysAdmin-X:
Here's another screenshot:

[Droid X Themes and Apps] prospect82:
I'm defintely interested in this theme

I contacted the developer about putting it on the droid x but never receive a response.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SysAdmin-X:
Hm... I can continue working on this when I get some time. I didnt really get a lot of feedback from people so I stopped working on it.

I have started porting a tron theme which you can search for in the droid x theme forum section
[Droid X Themes and Apps] prospect82:
I would love this theme. Would pay for it. Plenty of people of droidx forumns want it also
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SysAdmin-X:
Haha ok, I had stopped worjing on this cuz I didnt have feedback for it. But I will try and pick this back up. Currently working with bignadad to do crystalX theme! Check it out in the themes forum! Release is coming soon!

Tron Them

There was mention of a Tron Theme, anythingt for Liberty 1.5?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
The developer for this theme was a guy named Cuttalott, over on Droid Forums. He created this theme back in the Summer as a favor to myself and another member named StingRay. We both had fond memories of a similar theme done about a year ago for the Cyanogen rom by a guy named KrazyKrada (or something similar to that), who I contacted before Cuttalott released his take on the theme. KK indicated that he wasn't interested in moving to the froyo base for his theme, and gave his blessing to anyone who wished to do the gold & black theme.

Cuttalott released it and it was fairly popular for the froyo Droid 1 users. In late August, Cuttalott abruptly disappeared. I tried numerous times to contact him, as did StingRay, but neither of us had a home phone number for him. I tried contacting the administrators of Droid Forums, and they (who I presume had his home phone number or address) tried for several weeks. Cuttalott remains missing, and I personally fear the worst, because he was always such an attentive guy, who responded VERY quickly to any requests or reports of problems with his themes (he had several other themes, beside this one), and someone like that just doesn't decide abruptly "I've had enough of this, and I'm leaving now". He would have at least said good-bye to his friends. He disappeared without a trace, and no one over on DF has heard a word from him since. As I said earlier, I fear the worst, but there's no real way for me track him down.

In any event, Droid Forums essentially considers his work to be in the public domain, however a guy named xkape over there is doing his best to keep Cuttalott's work in the public eye, porting the various themes to new roms as they're released, and always crediting Cuttalott as the creator.

So now you know the history of this excellent theme and WHY you weren't able to get through to the developer - my friend Cuttalott.

[Droid X Themes and Apps] SysAdmin-X:
Ultra, thanks for the info. I will see if I can find some time to work on this in the near future. TO all others who may watch/check this thread.

i'm die hard for android, but not the way some of the devs/themers here are. I kinda took a break from it because I have a lot going on outside of android (work, girlfriend, travel for work, etc). I will try and set some time aside to pick this back up. I will have to start over from scratch since I updated and was doing this on the 2.3.15 OTA.

What ROM do most people use? I will try to make it for something most people use like LIberty 1.5, but it may take some time, as I don't have as much free time as I would like to spend porting this, and am still learning to theme myself.

Wish me luck, and I will see what I can do in the near future =)

PS sorry for the delay on this.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SysAdmin-X:

Even though you say you're nbew to the game, I'm a fan. You have good taste! Do I need no give you my email address or anything. (I'm new to the forum and do not know how to develop themes myself).

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WrlsFanatic:
OK, I know there are other threads about this, but when I read them I feel like it's for people that messed up other things that they shouldn't have, and I don't believe I'm in that group. Let's start with some basics:

- I have never used a NANDROID backup that wasn't from my own phone

- I ran grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0 and I still have my keys

- The only radio I've ever flashed was from Cyanogen based on the instructions from his wiki, and I don't think that messes anything up

I've tried flashing Fresh and Warm ROMs from both Clockwork and Amon, and I've tried both more than once, just in case there was an error. I turn 4G on and it says it's scanning, but nothing connects. I happen to know that I'm about 3 blocks from a Wimax tower, so there's no way I wouldn't be getting a signal. I've read through several other pages that people refer to but none of them seem to apply. It's always for people who don't have keys or who are having problems different from my own.

I apologize in advance if I missed something, and I know I could probably read all night, but I would really appreciate if someone could tell me what I can try to get my 4G radio working again.

Thanks!

UPDATE: OK, I was ready to go back to stock in utter desperation to see if something would fix itself, but I FINALLY got it to work. Here are the steps to follow if anyone else encounters this problem...

1) Make sure 4G is off

2) Open Root Explorer and go into /data/misc/wimax and rename the field there (xxxxxxxxxx.tree.xml where the xxx... is your 4G MAC address) to add .old at the end

3) Go into Settings -> System Updates -> Update profile

4) When that is complete, reset the phone (this may not be necessary, but... why not?)

5) Now turn on 4G and it should recreate the .xml file and be running smoothly

I had heard the tip about deleting the XML file, but nobody told me about updating the profile or anything along with that step. Hope this helps.

UPDATE 2: Now it's not working again. It was just sitting there, working fine one minute, and now it doesn't work again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WrlsFanatic:
FYI, I also have checked to see that my MAC address is correct, and I recreated my tree.xml file. My MAC address is just fine, but still no connectivity. My coworker with an EVO right next to me gets 4G here, so I know I should have a signal.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WrlsFanatic:
I just updated my profile (can't believe I didn't think of that before), but that didn't work either. I can't find anything that is in error to fix!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrapkgb:
What radio did you flash? And not sure if it has anything to do with wimax. Did you try to reflash the stock radio 2.15?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WrlsFanatic:
EDIT: Nevermind... it worked for a bit, I even used some data across that network, and now it's borked again.

I flashed the radio that is on this page, but on second view, I think that's just to upgrade people that were on a lower version of the radio. GRRR!!!! Should I try reflashing the stock radio? Would that help?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WrlsFanatic:
I keep getting it to turn back on by mixtures of deleting that .xml file and resetting my profile, but it absolutely will not stay. Any ideas?

Please recommend a good phone for my friend.

She is thinking of getting the Galaxy S but she is not sure.

I have the X10 and she likes its design, camera and the screen size.

She likes to text.

Needs a good camera for picture and video.

Prefer actual keyboard to touch screen ones.

Likes the phone to be sleek but will compromise for a good keyboard.

Hey man, I just recently rooted, installed a rom, kernel and themed my phone. So i was in the same position a couple of days ago

If your read around here the main thing you will see when doing something to your phone is making sure you have a Nandroid back up. The link below will show you how to create one and it gives you some other helpful advice. That post really made me confident on moving forward with my rooting experience.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9100239&postcount=15

Follow these steps to the T. It will save u just in case something goes wrong.

Once you follow those steps you can move forward to selecting a ROM which will change your phones layout also making it possible to flash a theme.

So i recently rooted my MT4G and all and that really killed my brain haha. And i wasnt sure if i wanted to keep it rooted. So i read one of the post how to unroot. I was quite confused. Its pretty much like the same process as to root it. Now i watch a video on youtube where a guy used a program to root it and unroot it was With a special program or something and i was curious to know if anyone was working on something like that or knows of something like that in the future.

Even though its a different HTC phone. I was just wondering if some day it will be that easy to root and unroot.

I cant post a link yet because this is my first post. but go to youtube.com> seach How to unroot your mytouch 4g. And one came up as How to Root and Unroot your Samsung vibrant. 2.24
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsbbq:
There are guides on how to root and unroot in the android development section. I can't imagine why you would want to unroot? it doesn't hurt anything and even if you never install a custom rom it is still good to have to backup your current rom and apps with ROM Manager and titanium.

Although the process is not a one click solution it is almost. temp root with visionary r14. Copy one file and run it from the terminal app on the phone then use visionary r14 to permroot with one click

Well it did hurt the wifi. Cause i keep getting Error. And when i looked at the solution patch to fix it. i went what the ****?!?!?! im more of the visual learner. If there are videos on how to root/unroot or whatever it would make my life alot easier.

To unroot its the same process as to rooting just put the unroot folder in?
[Vibrant General] sumasage:
I Odin-ed the JK6 update and when i look under status, it said "unknown" under Phone number. Does this happen to everyone too?

Another thing i found is that the menu button's vibration feed back is laggy. Like i would press the button then it would vibrate shortly after. For the other three buttons it would vibrate upon pressed. Is this a new thing in Froyo? I dont recall Eclair behave like this.

Also, does anyone having battery issue with JK6? Mine seem to drain a bit quicker than when i was running JI6.
[Vibrant General] Ms_Vibrant:
the leak is buggy,

let's just wait for the official one, it should be soon..
[Vibrant General] samnada:
Mine shows "unknown" for the phone #. I'm running pure stock JI6, so this issue is not specific to JK6. I don't use key vibrate (seems like a battery drain to me) so can't comment on that.

Edit: I don't check this very often, so took a look and now mine is showing the #. I know it was "unknown" for a month or two after I got the phone at the end of July, but there was a period where it did show the #, then the JI6 update seemed to set it back to unknown. Now the # is back. No idea what would make it toggle like that.
