Please one of you amazing devs take a look and assist?

DEVs you require... Hmmm... why not United Nations?
OK, Here is something just for you...
I'm just in doubt if you'd be able to apply it as you were not able to find it by yourself...

Xda is not a place for rudeness we are here to help each other before you get on your high horse and waste the effort of creating a patronising video of how to use google. This reason for my post is because this is a specific problem with the elk4 leak. If you read the other threads you would have seen others have tried agps and it still does not work. Hence my post.

1. Rudeness citation, please;
2. It is not a video it is a webpage based service created fot peoples who are unable to use search button in XDA forum or at Google, therefore, although I like your way of thinking, there is no high horse on the horizon, sorry. But... my concerns about your ability to use the patch are even bigger now, as you have thought it is a video created especially for you...
3. If you have specific problem, it would be better place for it, namely: Q&A, just below the general section of forum.
Last but not least: I have read ALL cited by me thread. No single comment about non working with your ROM, therefore, if you're giving such statement, provide link to the post, please.

You should have post this in Q&A section. Anyway I think it's kernel related just flash Siah kernel see if it's fix your problem but Siah kernel isn't fully compatible with this ROM yet so it will break your video recording.

Well this would make it one. This particular firmware gps problem is not related to whatever patch does, therefore it is not solved by a patch. Now if someone has idea or solution.... Doubt it anyways, and since I'm depending heavily on navigation for my work, back to lj5 patiently waiting for jkay, till next leak and next round of testing.
Testing JKay alpha on GT-I9300

Just noticed gps problems today, is there a fix? I previously didnt wipe. But flashed again full wipe. Not tested yet.

I can confirm that this worked for me today:
I had just installed Omega 33, and was trying to use GPS to navigate, but was not getting a good on my location (although I seemed to have a certain amount of accuracy to my position). I turned the GPS off and on again, and what little accuracy present went away and I never got the GPS lock.
I used the app known as "Fasterfix" from the play store. It needs root privileges in order for it to modify the "GPS.conf" file.
I live in India. Hence I chose my server as Asia-> India (it sets it to in.pool.ntp.org or something like that). There was no need to reboot. After this, I was successfully able to navigate without any problems.
Try it out and let me know whether it works.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

My problem was never getting a fast lock, it was holding onto it. When I would press navigate i would drive certain distance and would notice my position is few streets behind, then would get prompt gps lost, never to return. Turn off gps toggle, turn on later, aquire lock. Rinse and repeat.

You are saying the aGPS patch works, although from what I have read it's a completely unrelated problem, please show me it worked. If there is already a fix posted you should be straight linking it with a "please use the search next time" that's a helpful post.
And do you even know the problem, have you ever looked in the leaked firmware thread, I barely see you (checking the forums multiple times every day) and when I do see you your posts are rude, with absolutely no intelligence what so ever.

Did someone try to reflash the modem?
I can't try it right now, I will do it later and report.

I tried RyanZA's 2-3 batch file fix and I'm not having any problems...to which bugs are you referring?
The bug I’m aware of happens with apps that store data (such as texture) on the sd card outside of the new partition. Some games such as Asphalt 5, Homerun Battle 3d, heavy Gunner, maps... This is a problem with all the lags fixes. If you don't use those apps or apps like that it probably won't affect you.
For instance the load times for Homerun Battle were three times longer on start up, if it started up. I had several times where my phone just shut off. If it eventfully did start it would run fine. Chainfire talks about the bug in his thread found here.

Played around with maps, gps on/off, zillow app., switching back and forth and phone froze on Alpha 1 as well as 2.3. Also this is a know issue and I got it too, on 2.3 I was not able to change fonts. And I hate default font
When i use RyanZA lagfix it works but when i reboot the phone everything gets screwed up anyone have this problem itll take ages to boot up and when it does alot of force closes and widgets outta place etc
Use chainfire. I believe it may be the safest, easily the most automatic one.

GPS worse running Bionix 1.2.1

So I decided to root and install Bionix on my phone after the Kies 2.2 update pretty much destroyed my phone.
I've searched on the forum so far to no avail.... My GPS is far worse running the Bionix-V 1.2.1 rom... The rom is absolutely wonderful, but the GPS takes minutes to catch on, then when it finally does get signal, it either has me going in the wrong direction, or a street over or something... which doesn't help any.... but then after about a half hour it will finally work normally...
Does anyone have a fix for this as I sold my cars dashboard stupid garmin GPS cuz I had my awesome Google Nav... in which the GPS doesn't work... Yippeee... What a dumb mistake.
GPS really slow to fix on a signal on mine too. Sorry, I can't provide many details cuz i'm a noob.
try out,a,different modem. Personally I have,good results (gps) with jl5 and kb1 modems. Scrizz has a list of,them in,his,sig. Or check his,thread in,the development thread. On,a side note, I hate how the comma is placed next to the space bar in swype!

I recommend downloading SGS Tools from the Market and using that to get into LBSTestMode and deleting your GPS Data. If that doesn't work, flash a different modem.
I had the same problem you're describing. Deleting GPS Data cleared it up immediately.

My bad, come to think of it, it might have been pulled from the market. You can find the latest version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775154&page=37
I remember coming across an interesting thread about a month ago which provided instructions on how to physically modify the gps contacts on the circuit board so that it made a better contact with the gps antenna, thus improving the gps once and for all regardless which ROM you use. As one can expect, this is not for the faint of heart. Since I don't use my phone for its gps, I didn't have any reason to try the solution out. The only reason I remember it was because it was the first time I've read of a non-software solution for the gps issues that plague these phones.
If you were inclined to try it, I would imagine that you can locate the article easily by googleing it. If not, pm me and I'll see if I can find the article in my browsers history.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
It's the link in my signature. Although if his GPS was working before flashing the new ROM it's most likely fixable without having to crack open his phone. You're right, it's not for the feint of heart, and sadly it appears to be a necessary thing for most SGS owners to undertake.
Oh my bad, didn't realize you already provided the link.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Well, I guess I technically did but I didn't mention it....plus it is kinda small in my signature. No worries
I have sgs tools installed already. I have the latest version. I hit gps fix but same results.
The gps on this phone has never worked correctly since i bought the phone in august.
What do you mean flash a new modem. Could u provide a newb guide.
Thank you guys, or if someone has another suggestion please list it.
Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Don't hit GPS Fix. Do this:
Secret Codes > GPS-Test and settings (LBSTestMode) > Delete GPS Data
You can flash a new modem the same way you flashed the ROM through ClockWork, but try deleting GPS data first. Personally, I prefer the KA7 or KB1 modem for GPS, but every device is different.

[Q] Google Music - "Error retrieving information from server"

I'm running CM7.1 (Nightly Build) and have been experiencing issues with purchasing music from the Android app. Free songs seem to work fine, but to purchase music, Google servers are returning a 500 error. Perhaps this is caused by missing parameters on the device end?
I've been able to purchase music via the website as suggested on various other sites, but simply accepting the TOS didn't resolve the issue. Here's what I see in logcat:
BasicNetwork.performRequest: Unexpected response code 500 for https://android.clients.google.com/fdfe/purchase

Q&A sections work well when you want a question answered.
But seriously, here's a link to a thread somebody started a few days ago. In that thread there's a link I posted to a Google bug tracker, in case you were looking for something a little more official. Seems like the problem is slowly starting to get fixed according to the Google page.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for pointing that out. I haven't actually gone back into my Music settings on the website for quite sometime. I had 6 devices listed.
Not sure if that's the root of the problem. Even with 6 devices I was able to get my purchases working properly. Although, I'm sure it won't hurt to get rid of any old ones that might be on there just to be on the safe side.

No.
The way things were before I stopped using it, you can either have WiFi broken, or 3G broken. You cannot have both working, and have the phone change between the two of them.
Battery life is horrible with it. 50% worse than touchwiz roms.
It is really not worth using until it is ready, and it is not near that level yet.

Classy.
On 10-22, WiFi would cut out every now and then.
After updating to 11-24, WiFi no longer worked, period. There was a fix zip posted in the thread, which fixed WiFi, but broke 3G.
I reflashed to touchwiz at that point, as it was clear that CM7 was not going to work for me at its current stage.
Using touchwiz, I get 2 days of battery life.
I got around 28 hours with CM7.

And to think I wondered why there is so much drama in this developer community.
I have a problem logging into my goggle account. I had it set up fine when I came to cm7 (1122 build) from Acs Ics 4, as it prompted me after a clean install to login. I have since flashed the modified wifi 1122 build over the original 1122 and advance restored Data. I have now lost my goggle account login.
When I try to open the market it asks me if I want to login, yes or no. Whichever I select it takes me back to my homescreen.
So I go to settings, account & sync, add account: it only let's me create an exchange account (not sure if this is normal). I have entered my gmail account info, but it will not accept it and login. It asks for the domain and server... not sure if I can access my google account that way or not.
I don't really want to have to do a clean install every time a new build comes out and then reinstall all my apps. Doing an advanced restore to get data back in CWM is so much quicker and easier. Is there another option or remedy to this?
Any help is appreciated.

need an app for tasks with days counter

i'm looking for an app where i can display a list of tasks and beside it, it would list the number of days since i have last done it. For example, oil change 183 days ago or 20 days since i last paid my credit card. and if i click on it, it would reset the timer to 0 days. is there such an app?
I'm sure there is something similar, but I have not seen it.
And I like the app idea. :good:
Well as it just happens, I'm building an app that might do for you.
In case if you're interested, you can check the build version and give feedback. Knowing that i'll have someone who'll use it in advance will motivate me to publish it quicker.
This version works quite well, tested on Galaxy S2 and S4, help and about sections are still missing, also some UI tweaks and you might step on occasional bug, but so far it works for me very well.
EDIT: removed old links, since the application in question from my side has been published officially:
it's available on google play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...sapps.ncounter
also, xda thread is available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2661195
Sorry I havent checked back. Wow thats exactly what I'm looking for so far. I'll have to try it out for a bit first but it seems to be quite customizable. Only thing I can think of atm is allowing a task to change background color if a certain amount of time is reached. Say after 25 days if I still havent paid my bill, it turns yellow

I stumbled upon this app the other day it would probably help you. It's called Quixey, it's basically a search engine for apps that works off natural language descriptions. Describe what you want and it lists the most relevant result. It actually works pretty well.
