I bought a Evo recently, overall I'm very happy with it except the battery.

I have some trip recently so I began to use the gps and google maps,i found the latitude and longitude reported by the gps chip has a fixed accuracy error of about 300 meters to the correct value.

I have a Huawei C8500, whose gps can be called perfectly correct, it can show my position correctly within 5 meters, always,it helped me to go out of some mountainous area without road correctly.

I compare the data reported by the application gps status,i see the data on the two phones always have a little difference.

My evo is hardware version 0004, the latest 3.70.651.1 stock sprint rom.

I've known that it use rtr6500 chip from qualcomm,i will try to find the datasheet to check, but as I have seen online that somebody have good accuracy on evo, so I guess it's not chip problem.

Any good suggestion?
[EVO 4G General] izico:
I use google earth today, it always show the current position within 5 meters, and the time delay is maybe within 100 ms,i checked it on a road on a mountain area with a turn every 20 meters in average today, google earth can even show each turn correctly in a unnoticeable delay, and it has full 3D support,it can even show the road just shown as what I see when I'm in the car driving, and even some look around function to check the environment in 3D, it's way better than google maps.

The shortcomings is that earth has no much info about the name of the place than google maps.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
My GPS says it's correct up to 5-10 meters. So far it's always pinpointed me exactly.

As far as battery life, mines pretty decent. I'm running Myns with Kings #9 kernel
[EVO 4G General] izico:
I checked the difference of the gps data of the 2 phones carefully today, in fact both the latitude and longitude difference are within 0.00005° most of the time, and the largest difference are just 0.00015°, with a calculator and a little knowledge of the earth geometry, the difference are just within 5 meters most of the time, and 15 meters at most, so the gps data of my evo is correct, the problem is google maps show the current position some hundreds meters afar always.

what may be the problem of google maps on my evo?i used nexus one for 10 months, google maps works correctly on it too.

I have no much incentive to use some hacked rom by now, as I have no interest to the system programming on android now to customize my own rom, and I don't like to waste a lot time to try the rom of others endlessly, no much fun after doing this kind of things with other phones in the past, what I want is just a phone that just do whatever I want to do.

I bought a 9600mAh/3.7V external battery,i can charge my evo fully 3 times by it now ( maybe it can charge more times after more usage) without charging the external battery, it's acceptable for now.
[EVO 4G General] sfasu77:
Try running and downloading the GPS ephemeris data with the GPS Status app in the market.. see if that helps
[EVO 4G General] kzibart:
Google Maps obeys the phone's location settings for determining what method to use (GPS vs. cell and/or wifi signals). Check your global location settings and make sure GPS is enabled, and consider turning off "Use wireless networks", at least temporarily. I do not believe Google Earth obeys these settings, using GPS all of the time, but I could be mistaken.

I believe with both settings checked, Google Maps will initially use cell tower and/or wifi signals to estimate your location until it can resolve your true GPS location. It may even continue to factor in the cell/wifi signal information, which is why I suggest turning that option off while comparing locations between Maps and Earth.

Good luck.
[EVO 4G General] izico:
It does not help about the accuracy, but google maps will pinpoint my position to another place about some hundreds meters away now.

This is really weird so I try to find if I have installed something that interfere with google maps, maybe found it.

I have installed street view on google maps in the past, but this application does not work without any indication that it exists, and it can't be either uninstalled or opened, it looks like a zombie in the system now.

I guess it's still working when google maps run, it only do some wired thing to make maps malfunction now.

Do you know a way to uninstall this zombie totally? If there's no way in stock sprint rom,i need to learn to root and flash my evo then, I really don't feel much fun in this now.

Hi All,

There is a website that my wife watches videos on and it streams it's videos thru winamp or vlc player, is there a way to stream these movies on the Gtab. I'm using TnT Lite 2.4. I have the winamp app installed but not sure if it works for streaming videos.

Thanks,

Sorry to ask but can anyone recommend a free AP that would let me have different notification sounds for email and SMS etc
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] baseballfanz:
You don't need app, just go into the individual app (Email, Gmail, SMS, ect..)

and pick your notifications ringtone
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Vinsane:
If you're looking to get ringtones etc for free...Zedge is a great app. Free too.

Then as you assign, you can choose between system sounds or Zedge.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sparky steve:
Thanks baseballfanz. What an idiot I feel now lol

No I wasn't looking for ringtones

Ok, so I've been a big Launcher Pro fan for the past few months now after using the original ADW launcher previously on my N1. Anyway, still cruise the Nexus forums (still have my N1 and love it!) and saw a vid posted a few days back of a crazy new ADW launcher due for release and guess what, it's here and it's on another level compared to anything we have had before. I bet the guys at SPB shell are in bits right now as there whole USP just got trumped.

Just been playing with the configuration options for the last 40mins and it seems that I'm still at the tip of the iceberg. Some of the 3D effects are just stunning.

Anyway it's over at AndroidPit and obviously on the market.

http://www.androidpit.com/en/android/market/apps/app/org.adwfreak.launcher/ADWLauncher-EX

Check it out ASAP, there is a video link on the market/pit link.

I really liked ADW.Launcher, but in the end I found Launcher Pro to be faster on my DHD and ended up using that. Any comments yet on how fast the new ADW is?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] lynxboy:
That's one of the reasons I switched over, as LP was always the faster launcher, but the new EX version is blazing. The most appealing part is the 3D home screen transitions, which once again are blazingly fast. The only things which have slowed it down are buggy widgets. I do miss the LP widgets but have still got the old Pure widgets which are a great replacement and highly customizable.

Overall I'm very impressed with this revision of ADW.

Regards.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] MrGarak:
I find the home screen transitions very fast too, I still think the app drawer is a bit laggy though, which is where Launcher Pro has always had the upper hand for me speed wise, but I love the catalogs on ADW.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] panyan:
i might try this after i get bored with CM7 and the default launcher :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] preacher65:
Good to know, thanks. I'll have to give it a try.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] pshdo:
Can't we use all the widgets like eg. the clock from sense in adw also ?

I can't figure out how to anyway...

I think the new adw ex is fantastic, but without the widgets, using it make no sense ;)

But on eg. my S/E X10 it would be great I think.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] dr.m0x:
Sense widgets only work on Sense. I don't mind at all though because aosp may not be as pretty but out sure is fast.

This new launcher is awesome. It's like adw on steroids. It's a pity I just purchased Launcher Pro. That app is good but seems kind of stagnant, development wise.

Nice widgets but you can't even rearrange the home screens which is annoying if you want to add more screens and keep the one with the clock in the centre.

Sent from my Gingerbread eating Desire HD.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] ssimmmo:
Great app after buying adw launcher all that time ago and just brought launcher ex wow just so great. Its nice to see new animation come with it. Just make you're home screen come alive a bit more

I think that what first got my attention. With sense and the weather animation just add a bit of life to your phone.

HTC HERO - HTC HD2 - NOW HTC DESIRE HD & SAMSUNG GALAXY S Bring on the modding.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Aamir.Badat:
How do you get the sense clock
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] MrGarak:
Look for a similar one on the market, Beautiful Widgets might be your thing.

I like this one: SiMi Clock.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] ntrujillo:
Ok I know everyone is asking about the sense clock widget on this launcher but we have good reason to ask this, cuz when you look in the market at this app and u look at the screenshots provided, it looks like they are using the sense clock! I am using beautiful widgets and I have looked for one that looks similar but they all still don't look as good as the sense clock. So I'm curious myself if it is the sense clock or did they find a sweet skin that's looks identical to the sense clock?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] CitizenLee:
That's because they're probably using Fancy Widget.

The old version was an exact copy of HTC Flip Clock, so HTC made them remove it. Unfortunately the new version you can now find on the Market is different and doesn't look as good.

I'll add a Dropbox link later if I still have the original apk at on my home PC (at work right now).

You should also be able to find it here on XDA if you're good at using the search function ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] happydan:
Has anyone tried using new themes with EX? I'm finding that launcher graphics don't line up in this version when they worked fine in the CM version of ADW. Not sure if the spec for themes has changed?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] fana05:
That'd be sick dude!! i find myself undecided and switching back and forth between Sense and adw b/c i love the flip clock with the animated weather forecast and whatnot
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] fl4r3:
Loving the new launcher too (was a bit sceptical at first since Launcher Pro was faster than the original ADW Launcher)....but this one is fast and 'fancy' with all its animations!

Does anyone know a way we can have custom dock backgrounds like in Launcher Pro? It’s the only thing I miss!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mdskrzypczyk:
All right guys, I've been curious, does actually having multiple android builds on the same sd card interfere with the way the other ones work? It may just be the way I'm putting them on the sd or some minor thing I'm missing but whenever I have more than one build on my sd, they become unstable when I'm using them. Can anyone shed some light on this for me or am I just crazy?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mdskrzypczyk:
Also, can there be an interference with an installation of a build if it is first booted up while there is another android build residing somewhere else on the SD card?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
You're supposed to be able to run different Android builds from 1 sd card, but I'd strongly recommend against it. I used to have a few different builds on my sd card, Android-Nexus, Android-Desire etc., each in a relevantly named folder. But I found that they each also used a folder called Android, regardless of startup.txt. Because of this, they were not using independent folders and therefore could not work on the same card. Basically, don't do it.

[Fascinate General] zahne:
So I've been trying to get a straight answer on this. Google is turning up mixed results. As I understand it, the Fascinate has a front facing camera with certain carriers. Some people are saying that the there is no FFC on the VZW version at all while others say that the FFC is physically in the VZW phone it's just not active. So, what's the story? Is there an empty space where the FFC should be? Or is it really there and hopefully activated sometime down the road with a firmware update?
[Fascinate General] slvrevoix:
no
[Fascinate General] devlp1213:
there is no ffc on the vzw fascinate
[Fascinate General] tlogank:
Yes, the front facing camera is there, but they don't want it turned on yet. They will activate it when they enable the LTE chip in your phone. I believe it's all part of the Froyo update. Should be getting it in the next few hours from what I read on another site.
[Fascinate General] dr.duct_mossburg:

FFC

I know for a fact that some GS phones have a spot for a FFC . I know for sure that a friend of mine took apart a GS phone and found the spot where a camara would be and rubbed a clean spot and found the lens. He also installed a FFC in a phone that did not come with a FFC. If the spot is there you can just drop a FFC in there and it will work, I promise you I have seen this with my own eyes.
[Fascinate General] dr.duct_mossburg:
Post pictures or it didnt happen.

The Fascinate is a Galaxy S phone and I have taken apart a few and their is no spot for a ffc. I am half tempted to take mine apart now just to prove this thread is redundant.
[Fascinate General] Falcyn:
The Fascinate doesn't have a front facing camera -- not our version, or Telus'.

Some versions of the Galaxy S, on the other hand, do, including the base international version (GT-i9000) and Sprint's Epic 4G.

But while we don't have a camera, there very well may be an opening in the body mold for one. It's there on the Vibrant, our closest U.S. contemporary, and someone even managed to install a front-facing camera into it (and many more have following his instructions). It was definitely not as simple as just dropping a camera in, however, because the software needs to be heavily modded to work with an FFC and nobody's done that with the Fascinate. I'd suggest reading that post if you want to try -- and just keep in mind you'd need to get the software end working too.
[Fascinate General] cesium:
:rolleyes:
[Fascinate General] adiliyo:
yea, no FFC, wait for the i520 if you want one
[Fascinate General] RacerXFD:
Did you take apart the phone or know something that we don't?

No, there is no front facing camera. Don't spread misinformation. There is also no LTE on this phone.

This is just to be clear for everyone...

And with froyo, who knows when that is coming.

Was a snap finding the locations with CDMA workshop 3.6.

Maybe don't be a pirate and just buy CDMA workshop?

It's unbelievably easy to do when you own the proper software.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drfosters:
You have 10 Esn locations posted, that it the correct amount, what is the reply when you send requestnvitemread esn?

Btw it is the exactly the same proccess to

find

the locations using 2.7 as 3.6, you evidently don't have much experiance with them, The difference would be in writing them to 0's.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Necrosan:
For the ESN; no easy way to find the MEID locations without 3.6 ("easy" differs amongst people)

But noting that he is 0'd for the MEID and halfway done, I will give him a hint - There is more than 10 locations you will find for the ESN. Zero and rescan.

There have been 12+ locations on every EVO I have done. (All have been Froyo/Radio 2.10 or above)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drfosters:
You may find more than 10 locations but all those locations do not need to be 0'd out.

I have never worked with an Evo 2.10 radio, and that may be it, but I doubt it. When you repair an Esn that has already been repaired before, you will see that.

Last I checked "easy" was telling a program to scan and waiting for the results, but as you say, easy is a matter of opinion. Getting all the locations first shot is a matter of luck, maybe you have better luck because you bought the program :-)

Either way, these should be your missing ESN locations:

0x017C19F0

0x017CE8E0

0x017D8D80

0x01D34E40

0x01D34E70

Try them and look around the actual location as they may not be exact, if they don't work, post the radio and software version you are running.

Have fun!
