Updates: tried with miui and desire rom, same behaviour.

Reinstalled WINMO6.5 and tried a littlebit, it gets a fix in 1 to 2 minutes but i can see the satellites in the tool. After fix it keeps the connection.

Anyone of you can please let me know how is GPS status acting on your HD2s?

I've a nexus one too and GPS status starts showing stallites slowly, one by one untill it get a fix. The few times i got a fix on the HD2 it was suddenly, no satellites where showing before. Is it acting the same on your HD2s? I'm becmoing mad 'casue by the blueprints both HD2 and Nexus should have the same chipsets and the nexus is really really fast in getting the signal (with or without agps).

Another thing, since my HD2 is brand new (it came back from HTC for repair the 4th of jan) may it use a different GPS module? Is there any way i can check it?

Cheers.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Eelkede:
Works fine with me,

MDJ 2.5 CM7

2.12.50 Radio

Fasterfix set to Netherlands. AGPS downloaded via GPS-Status.

Get a pretty quick fix, about 2 minutes.

Didn't change any lib, since it should work out of the box with MDJ 2.5.

Also, the first time a fix will take some time longer, so just wait till you get a fix.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cabalist:
Thanks but i already waited very long... 15 minutes on a balcony in the middle of an open street is too much, i didn't get a single satellite showing in this time!

The nexus gets the signal in 2 minutes without AGPS and after erasing GPS data. It also starts showing satellites after 15 seconds at worst.

The 2 uses the same rom (cm6.1 froyo) and same tools, tests were made side by side. :(

By the way, could you please help with my other question? Does your GPS status show satellites slowly or suddenly?

Thanks. :)

I have no problem with 2 hd2s, 1 running mdj 2.6 and 1 is running desire hd.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] anap40:
There is definitley a problem with the GPS, I have pretty much the same experience as the OP, sometimes it fixes sometimes it doesn't. When it does fix it suddenly has 6-8 satellites after finding 0 for 10 minutes.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cabalist:
Also some other guys reported this behaviour, it doesn't show anything untill it gets a fix. I think this is due to libgps which is probably still in development.

At least i hope! Today i gave it another try, went out in the middle of nowhere and had a 15 minute walk in around 30sqmt with gps status open and leo on my hands.

No fix... :(

Hope some developer may look at this and help me out understand what's wrong with my unit. Also logs say everything is working correctly... but it doesn't.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Eelkede:
Did you try to reflash the ROM?

Also I get a pretty sudden fix of satellites, it will scan, and suddenly comes up with 5 fixed satellites of 8, it was also pretty quick this time. Less than 1 minute!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cabalist:
i flashed like 10 roms, some of them twice... :(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cabalist:
Some good news! It seems that using WINMO + SD Rom it works every time, it's just someway slow in locking the position and it doesn't matter if i just got lock or not.

Used Cope's gingerbread rom, first got fix with winmo, then with phone in the same position switched to andorid ad got a lock in around 5 minutes with GPS status, then i switched to Maps and got another lock in around 2 minutes. Not exactly fast but it's working at least! I don't know if it will become better with usage, i'll keep you updated.

In the meantime who was stuck as i was could give it a try.

Cheers.

Will the 3D effect work with the Real3D glasses that cinemas are using now? They use passive 3D technology, but the lenses just look tinted as opposed to the red/blue ones.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
I'm not sure what Real3D is, but if you're talking about those glases that use different polarisation for left and right (which is common over here in cinemas, these glasses look grey-ish), the no. You need a special screen for that.

Doing that with projectors is actually much easier than in a screen, as far as I know. You just use two projectors with polarization filters.

Hi guys

Are there any apps that can display how much current (mAh) is being drawn while charging? I recently purchased a usb car charger that claims to output at 1 amp (1000 mAh) per usb port (it has two) and i want to test it.

Any suggestions? I'd like to be able to do this without any additional hardware

Sent from my HTC Glacier
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] missparker76:
Elixir can do this (you'll have to add a widget on your homescreen and select Battery Current in the list of applications that are proposed).

For example I can see the difference between my wall charger (850 mA/h) and my laptop (400 mA/h).

EDIT: you can also find the information directly in the Elixir application by clicking on the battery category ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PhantomRampage:
Thanks a bunch, man :] It seems to work but for some reason the widget isn't there.

Apparently my Mytouch 4g (Htc Glacier) maxes out at around 480 mA/h. Is this a hardware limitation?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Moosehunter:
Where's the battery current located? I can't find it on my captivate.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] missparker76:
Well I'm a girl indeed ;)

I don't know whether this limit can be changed. I would think that it can't but it's just my thought. Maybe other members can give more information?

Have you installed Elixir? If yes, just open it and click on the first line where you can see a battery icon. In the pop up window there's "Current".
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PhantomRampage:
My apologies! I didn't catch the username and I haven't run into another girl on xda so i just assumed you were a guy.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] missparker76:
Strange ... What do you see when you open Elixir? You don't see the battery picture?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PReDiToR:
On ZTE Blade battery is present, and clicking it gives no mention of charge draw, neither does the homescreen widget for battery, that just pulls up the built in "settings" power panel.

While common sense says it's bad, the big media companies are all retarded and do this. It's the same reason you have DRM on media and games, why you have to wait a month to get movies through Netflix or Redbox, why Netflix's online selection is smaller than their DVD selection, and so on.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davewuvswaffles:
I've had my prop.build changed for a while from the default 240 to 190 and love the high-res look it provides, but obviously some apps don't automatically scale right with the change.

I heard something about either turning Compatibility Mode on or off to fix the problem, but have no clue where to make this change.

TL;DR

How do I turn compatibility mode on or off?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loggik:
There's no such thing. Once you change that file, the display driver will display everything at 190PPI. It's not an application based thing (which is what what you're talking about sounds like), so if you want to run an application that doesn't support the res hack, you'll just have to edit prop.build back to 240 and reboot. It's pain, and that's why I haven't bothered with it.

Edit: Just speculation; you capitalized 'Compatibility Mode' as if it were an actual setting somewhere. Just to make sure, the res hack is in no way supported by Samsung or default AOSP settings.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davewuvswaffles:
Yeah I assumed it was a setting somewhere but I guess I must have read something and misconstrued it to apply to what I was thinking about.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loggik:
I'd assume so. But yeah, just bear in mind that if you're editing files like that, then it's most likely not going to be very well supported, and normally there isn't going to be a fix (unless it's built into a ROM by a dev, in which case the dev probably wouldn't think to release a standalone fix anyway). But that's the joy of Android, right? :p

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nocode99:
So I thought Skyraider (3.5 and Athena) were Gingerbread based ROMs. I've been looking around, but I'm still a little confused. Which ones are Gingerbread based ROMS and which ones are currently the most bug-free?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865331 is this the only one?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaykresge:
Give a man a fish, and you'll feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you'll feed him for a lifetime. So, I'm going to directly answer your question, but also give you some more background so that in the future, you'll have a better understanding of how these ROMs work.

There are 3 primary types of ROM out for the Incredibe; Sense, Sense(less), and AOSP.

Sense - A sense-based ROM, obviously, has HTC Sense. These ROMs are extracted from a phone, then ported to the Incredible, and/or customized as needed. Most Sense ROMs are actually based off an official Incredible release (Redemption, Virtuous, Skyraider Sense, etc.). Some are based off the Evo (Redemptive Revolution), while others are ports from the Desire Z or Desire HD. In order for a Sense-based ROM to be 2.3 (gingerbread), HTC has to first port Sense to Gingerbread, which they haven't done yet. So, there's no Sense-based 2.3 ROM out, yet.

Sense(less) - Really, all a Sense(less) ROM is, is a Sense-based ROM with Sense elements removed or hidden. This is to preserve the stability of a Sense-ROM while offering the look and customization of an AOSP ROM.

AOSP -

A

ndroid

O

pen

S

ource

P

roject; These are the ROMs where a developer takes the a stock Android version, ports it to your phone, and may or may not customize the crap out of it. These are the ROMs where you'll get Gingerbread. The most popular seems to be Cyanogen(mod). CM7 is in the nightly phase, which is an advanced beta, but very stable with only minor issues. It's currently based on Android 2.3.2

So, to answer your question, there are a few Gingerbread ROMs out, none of which use Sense. Cyanogen(mod) is a good place to start.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whoopingchow:
Hi all,

I've run into this issue a couple times, and it's always required a nandroid restore, but I was hoping you might have some suggestions that aren't as drastic. Yesterday, LauncherPro crashed (uninstalled itself?) and so everything reverted back to the ADW Launcher. In reinstalled LauncherPro and force stopped ADW Launcher, so at least I have my home screen back. After LauncherPro quit on me though, I noticed that my screen wouldn't lock anymore. I've checked the settings, the timeout's still the same as before, it just won't lock anymore. My home key stopped responding too. It's still recognized as a button (i.e. it wakes my phone up), but it won't do anything (i.e. getting from the app drawer to the homescreen). After reinstalling LauncherPro, all my apps that I had moved to my SD card disappeared, and I had to unmount and remount my SD card for them to show up again. This is all after battery pulling, hair pulling, and restarting countless numbers of times.

I'm running Jaybob's Cyanogen 6.2 10-12 BlackMod. Any one have any ideas?

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runngwlf:
I would uninstall launcher pro and then clear the data from applications in ADW. Then install launcher pro again. Don't force stop ADW, just hit your home button and then select launcher pro as default. If that doesnt work, try reflashing your rom over what you have and see if that works. Beyond that, you may have to reflash your rom, something got corrupted somewhere.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whoopingchow:
I'll try reflashing a new ROM on top of it, hopefully that works. Thanks. I uninstalled and reinstalled LauncherPro, so everything's looking normal at least. Do you think the screen lock issue and the home button issue are because something got corrupted in the ROM too?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runngwlf:
I think that is most likely. It is possible something in the framework got messed up when you had your issues. You don't have to flash a different rom either, if you reflash the one your using over what you have without a wipe the only thing it will do is undo any changes made as well as themes etc, everything else will still be there, so you won't have to set a lot back up. Give it a shot :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whoopingchow:
Flashed the 10-12 Blackmod, still didn't work. Just flashed the most recent version too, (12-31) Blackmod, and they still don't work. Screen still doesn't lock, and I just realized that, not only the home button not work, but neither does the search button. If I don't want to nandroid this, do I just have to learn to live with this?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whoopingchow:
Update: nandroid restored it. Restored apps and data with Titanium Backup. Plugged it in to delete the nandroid backup to free up some space on the SD card, and the issue came back. Seriously contemplating a factory reset. Ugh.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
I remember hearing stuff about this when people were flashing the tiny gapps. Did you flash the gapps from 12/18 in the OP of jaybob's thread? If not give that a try. Screen lock may be spotty if you have disabled window animations, so if you did that go enable them, then for speed you can go into spare parts and set them to fast.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whoopingchow:
I may actually have flashed the tiny gapps...the strange thing is that my phone was fine for almost 2 months before this issue came up. Are the window animations Cyanogen settings or LauncherPro settings? I'm pretty sure I didn't disable them...I ended up factory resetting it and flashing the updated ROM and 12/18 gapps, and everything looks like it's running pretty smoothly now.
