that would be a pitty, not having this app developed further...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] saphirrot:
but i got an active connection, the programm is not detecting it. It dont detect a connection every time now. Just like yesterday i cannot download the XTRA data around 10 to 20 o clock. Just in the evening around 21 o clock its working again. Thats the issue.

But here you got a FC for the Moment : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDjAp-ID6VQ
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Just until I got a Market Account. The problem is that it cost 25€, I'm student and if I pay the Market Account my cat will not eat for one month :p

I'm saving the money from donations, for that purpose :) so be patient. Main problem is that >>> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=900923
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Yeah. I know that you have an active connection. But you are using the button that call a native process. This native process have a bug, for that we need to deactivate and activate the WiFi.

I cannot reproduce the forceclose. Maybe you have something wrong in your phone. Try to reboot it. But before that, open a windows cmd, connect your phone via USB, activate the debug mode, and type the following in the cmd > abd shell > logcat and then send me the report. Thank you!

EDIT: I reproduce the FC :D I will fix it. I don't need the logcat. I will upload the new version in ten minutes :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
OP Updated.. new version!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] saphirrot:
Haha cool. I got a last question. Please tell me why I can download gps aid data in the evening and not in the morning, now?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Don't know. I can download it all time. But please, try the following (make a video if you can) >>

- Open GPS Adis.

- Try to download de XTRA data (upper right button).

- If you got an alert dialog telling you about disable/enable WiFi click on Yes!

- Wait until the WiFi it's disable and then enabled (five to ten seconds).

Then if the app come to me main windows, everything is ok. If the download windows don't disappear. Try to reboot your phone.

As I told you later, the native method, use a hidden option in Android. It have a bug, I cannot do nothing to solve it. The forced method use a direct workaround (download and copy file). Both method do the same, but with different actuations. Tell me something, thank you!

EDIT: After installation of new version, kill the app :)

=== ESP ===

Tronco, gracias por la app, pero me pasa lo mismo que a Shapirrot, con wifi activo me dice que no encuentra conexión activa, y con 3g más de lo mismo...

El método "por cojones" tampoco parece funcionar.

Perooooooo... después de rebootear he visto la luz ;)

Resultado:

Dentro de casa;

* Antes de usar tu app: 1 minuto completo de GPS Test = 2 sats in view, 2 in use, NO LOCK

* Después de tu app: <1 minuto de GPS Test = 7 sats in view, 5 in use, LOCK

En la calle;

Visto y no visto. En menos de 5 seg lock.

=== ENG ===

Thanks 4 the app, but I'm suffering the same as Shapirrot, with wifi enabled app says doesnt find active connection, and the same with 3g.

Force brute method not working too.

Update: After reboot it works

Results:

Indoors:

* Before your app: 1 minute in GPS Test = 2 sats in view, 2 in use, NO LOCK

* After your app: <1 min in GPS Test = 7 sats in view, 5 in use, LOCK

Outdoors:

If you blink you'll miss the lock.

you are welcome!

it is "zh-cn", or if you prefer two letters, then "zh" is fine.

please PM me if anything needs update, as my translation may not be the perfect at the moment.

good to see it on your application before i can improve it.

Nope, but the accuracy depends on an updated database. Don't know how much long the orbits database has precise records, but I think for two-three days old is alright.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] titooo7:
It’s nice that you received enough donations to open yourself a market account.

But I still got a doubt,what term should we search for when looking for this app in the market? Gps Aid or Cazurros? xD
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Sine.:
Previously GPS Horny Nurse was "proposed" by ondoteam, I would definitively vote for this xD

(@ondoteam : have you check your pm?)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] lmulli:
No idea if its just me, but before running this app I could lock 9 satellites within 10 seconds outside, now it tops out at 6.

Indoors, I could get a lock on 2 satellites in 15 seconds, now get just 1.

Using the same server (europe). Oh well, worth a shot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Jajajaja lo tendré en cuenta... pero debe ser algo raro que tenéis en vuestras ROMS porque yo no soy capaz de reproducir esos errores.

No, you can kill it :D

Search for GPS Aids

First time I read that. Take in mind that radio waves will be deteriorated by weather conditions and other things.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Ok! Thank to the last donation of ^Sbk79^ now I have a Market Account and the app it's uploaded :D

Ondoteam, la aplicación del market me dice que no esta firmada correctamente.

ENG:

Ondoteam, the app in the market isn't correctly sign.

Edit: If anybody has the same problem, just uninstall the app, and then use the market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] patriarha:
A word of advice to ondoteam:

Make sure you've got the right device model in the market, otherwise no one will able to install the application.

P.S. Can you explain why the application needs following permission (for a start, some of the other permissions are curios as well):

"Phone calls

read phone state and identity

Allows the application to access the phone features of the device. An application with this permission can determine the phone number and serial number of this phone, whether a call is active, the number that call is connected to and the like."
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ttf:
Working well so far!, thanks for your work!

I'll test for a bit and report if there is some bug.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
xD ¡Pero si lo pone en negrita en el quote que has hecho! Mariquita..

Good question. I have no idea... maybe due to Eclipse permissions tools have some rare behaviours adding things. Sorry for that and thank you! You can be sure that I didn't get any kind of date from your mobile. Check the connections that the app do if you want. I will upload a new version without the permission :)

EDIT: I cannot select any model in the Market as filter. The problem is that the key of version uploaded here it's different of the key used for the app in the market :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] vinclar:
LOL :o True, true. Perhaps if the advice was in the beggining of the sentence...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
New version on market :)

+ French translation.

- READ_PHONE_STATE Permission
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
@patriarha the other permisions are for >

android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE > Needed for various check.

android.permission.INTERNET > Needed to download GPS aiding data

android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE > In force mode to copy lto.dat and gps.conf in the SD Card at /data/

android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION > Needed in order to inject code to the GPS and do some checks.

android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION > Same as above.

android.permission.ACCESS_LOCATION_EXTRA_COMMANDS > Needed to inject the code.

If you have further questions do not hesitate to ask!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] aladin6:
I really didn't understand the whole purpose of the application :p:confused:

It optimises GPS reception! right ?

And when i tap on download gps help (xtra data) it tells me that the system can't detect an active connection(wifi on and gps on) !

Can you please try to explain me :P ?

Thanks :) .
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Hehehe can you read de main windows? By the way, I have to do something with translations... android have a bug at time of inject the data. Sometimes we need to disable/enable the WiFi to download de data. Simply click on yes when the alert dialog appear. If it didn't work.. try to reboot your device. Regards and thank you for de feedback!

Thank you!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ttf:
Bug found in the new version:

With the french translation, i don't have the first menu anymore (can't select WIFI or 3G). When wifi is on before the application launch, it sometime synchronise well but not always, even closing the wifi connexion sometime, you have to close GPSaids en reenable the WIFI.

No problem with the old version.

Edit btw : i did a market update, not a uninstall/reinstall.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] betoNL:
Hola Ondoteam,

Great effort, congratulaciones... I have some questions if I may:

Is your app downloading and/or reseting extra gps data the same way apps like GPS Status and GPS Test are doing? If not , what's the difference?

And from where is it downloading from?

Do you know, AIDS in english means SIDA in Spanish?

I would change the word Aids to Aid without the "s" that means "ayuda"

Or GPS Xtra Aid or Gps Xtra Assist

Saludos
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Sorry, but I don't understand the problem. Can you explain yourself in other way? I was checking the app using french and everything it's okey with the translation.

Thank you!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
More or less about the download way using native method. I have implemented some tricks to force the download and other things. It is downloading taking the configuration of your gps.conf XTRA servers.

About the name.. AIDS = SIDA but Aids or aids = help/ayudas. Like Radio Aids used in radio navigations. Regards!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
OP Updated with a video demonstration :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
OMG! Android Market it's a dream :) it is reporting crash with a log! Now I can work without a ouija!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] betoNL:
Nice...

Off topic: which program did you use to capture it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Steephig:
Small thingy.

If the GPS sensor is disabled (it usually is for me to save battery) and you try to use the native method, nothing happens. Only the GPS setting menu is opened.

I suppose it not really needed to have GPS enabled to download the file with native method, but if it is I think a warning message should be shown.

Other than that it works great! Had a fast fix in a place where I normally don't have a fix at all unless I move to the window and wait a minute.

Thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Hello! The video was made with Premiere (it a succession of captured images). The images was taken with http://www.mightypocket.com/2010/08/android-screenshots-screen-capture-screen-cast/

Ok steps that the app made using native method:

1.- Download and inject XTRA data (sometimes fail) so...

2.- We do the first force to download XTRA data activating and using de GPS (sometimes fail) so...

3.- If wifi is active > we deactivate then activate it. And if the WiFi it's deactivated > activate it... and that is the second force.

Why this infernal thing? The implementation of inject commands in Android it's buggy. Now that I have a Market Account I can test various things with a lot of devices and I can get reports of fails... BUT I got 4 stars only for the name of the app hehehe so... if I delete something and the app don't work I will get minus four stars rapid as nothing!

Regards.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Open poll:

What happend if I add a function to autostart an app like Navigator, GPS Status, etc., after the XTRA data download it's done?

1.- It will be fine!

2.- I will not use that feature in my life!

Lol nah I'm actually quite smart I'm just childish.

Although the word aide would probably be more suitable :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] BobbyHenceMcGee:
After testing this app out, I have to say you are simply a genious.

Quickest lock I've ever received using any GPS device.

10 seconds for 10 satellite fixes? Jesus.

Quickest I've had previously was 60 seconds for 3, and another 60 seconds after that for 7 (never had more than 7 before)

By god man you are a legend!!

Although I still think GPS Aide sounds better :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mengsuan:
I am impressed. This app does bring practical advantages. The fix time is barely 10 seconds, just as quick as my HTC device. I am wondering if HTC actually do use this method to make their device perform better for GPS. :D

I'm guessing that if we're in teh UK we should use the Custom NTP server option and switch to uk.pool.ntp.org?

Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] virgopunk:
Sorry, just a couple of other quick questions; will this work ok if I'm using the BUJP5 modem and Darky's 9.2?

Muchos gracias

:o)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] saphirrot:
u dont need to use fasterfix anymore, Open GPS Aids, go to settings and click on NTP Server Option. Its the same option that FasterFix do.

If i´m right, than it has nothing to do with your Modem because GPS Aids is adding server location data to your system and not to your modem.

BTW mate, i´m from Germany, if i set de.pool.ntp.org my GPS is not working that well as i´m runnin it on Europe.pool.ntp.org. I think you all should test some server and run with the best views and accurace !!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] virgopunk:
Following on from the NTP server question then; hass anyone else had better results using the generic europe.pool.ntp.org server instead of a more localised server e.g. UK)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Lukeenho:
I would like to ask exactly the same question. Would it be better if I give there my country NTP (czech) rather than Europe one?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
i can download the xtra data, but when i click delete, it says xtra data is supposed to be deleted.

does this mean it has been deleted?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] lmulli:
I've just changed mine to the UK and where I was getting 1 Satellite with the Europe NTP and no lock (this is inside a building by the way), I instantly got 7 satellites and all of them locked!!!

I would say then that using a localised server in my case is certainly an improvement!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
WoW! Lot of quotes..

Thanks for the donation! Really I'm thinking in change the name..

What is FasteFix?

I don't know, but I think that it can work without problems :) tell me something..

Thank you!

It is a bug in the android injection problem. Try to toggle off/on the WiFi or reboot :)

It's depend of how fast is your local server :D

Yeah :D

Just try. Example: Spain NTP Server: 1000 users loading it and a big latency || Europe NTP Server: 100 users loading it with a very low latency > Europe server will be my choice :)

Yes. The injection command for delete, never fail. Just check the LTO age the next time :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] virgopunk:
Is it ok to download the XTRA data via 3G or does it have to be wi-fi? I noticed you can select 3G and/or wifi on the settings.

Thanks.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] betoNL:
The signals from satellites is part of the visible wavelength, so is affected by things like thick cloud (especially mist/fog) trees and buildings.( radiation and magnetic fields too)

whilst you can sometimes get a fix indoors, mostly you can't, or only a weak signal.

To test if the internal gps is working, go outside with a decent clear view of the sky.

But with good implemented full AGPS (supl) that uses cell towers(tri-lateration method),you can get fixes indoors but they are not always reliable.

Before using words like bull****, you should learn a thing or 2 about gps

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MacFloid:
Hey there,

some years after I sold my G1 I'm up with another Android phone, Desire HD.

Great phone, bad battery as usual...

But I really wonder why they put such yellowish LEDs to the phone. It's ok that the phone is equipped with LEDs but every picture I take with LEDs turned on looks yellowish. The pictures don't look like it would be "real" light, it looks worse than white light.

When you switch on the lights you can already see that it's yellowish.

Perhaps someone has an explanation... :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Change the white balance settings, that sometimes helps.

Or you can correct it in an image editor like PicSay Pro (phone app) or Photoshop.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HanZie82:
I also notice that (in the preview/viewfinder screen) it makes it look yellow.

But when taken the picture the preview on my stock-rom but updated phone is a normal color and not yellowish at all.

Hello fellow xda members! I think many of you know about T-Mobile's data throttling and what a nuance it may be. I would like to hear your thoughts on this and even possible solutions to this. Thanks!
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
It's better than cutting you off completely like other providers do. They begin throttling after 5gb on unlimited plans... everyone else will cut you off completely at 5gb.
[HD2 General] mystik610:
Not sure how these providers get away with selling these as 'unlimited' plans, when they throttle or disconnect your data connection at a certainl level. I understand thet 5gb is rather generous, and that the terms and conditions of most providers specify the data cap in the fine print, but they still go around advertising these plans as unlimited data plans when they're technically not.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
I agree... I think some have stopped calling them unlimited plans recently, though. At least T-Mobile's really is unlimited, even though they throttle after 5gb.... it's better than getting completely cut off. I wish I could afford an unlimited data plan myself, but unfortunately I'm stuch with prepaid t-mobile right now. I can buy a web daypass for $1.50, which is technically unlimited data for 24 hours, but they begin throttling after 5mb:(
