Igo8 3d Navigation

Happy to report i just got my hand on north american maps and this program works a charm on the kaiser. Only thing we need now is fm for rds tmz.
***MOD EDIT***
Link to warez site removed.

how big are the map files? I have the older igo and the usa maps take up about 1.8 gigs.

somehow I don't think posting a WAREZ site is with site policy...

grow up, its not about being a "tattle tail" its about keeping this forum alive and problem free, to help develop xda devices. Creating problems via copy right issues is not the way to go for this great forum. Finding web sites with illegal software is very easy, but this web site is not about that, so relax!! and learn to spell.
Does igo8 use different maps then the previous version?

First of all he isnt tattling... this post wasnt even reported, but us mods and admins do read these forums as well... Second of all he was letting the OP know that posting warez or links to warez site's is prohibited. XDA does not support warez nor condone the use of them.

Actually the agencies DO care - that's why the Hermes Forum had to remove a lot of the shipped rom downloads to prevent the site being closed, chefs have to re-cook their roms to remove non-freeware apps etc, etc.
We all know people use the warez sites, but to keep THIS forum open we have rules which we must follow. If you don't like it or want to get mouthy that's your choice, but you'll end up being banned or no one helping you when you have problems.

I merely stated that the new igo works well and looks great, the site i linked to is not a warez site as there is no programs to download from that site Please remove my post if you feel that strongly about it.
Also i don't care if it is illegal or not i will try out a program before i buy it. Otherwise i would have thrown out over a grand on **** navigation software like navigon, route66 and so on
Don't visit the site if you don't agree!!!!!
Also i would like you all to know that TomTom sold over 40 times because of my recommendation and so will igo8 once their poi's have more coverage and once their traffic updates can be received through data connection.
XDA-developers is a great website to say the least and i would never consciously jeopardize their operation i do not feel that the link i posted pointed towards a warezsite especially since a simple google search pulls up that very same site and google has tried their utmost to keep from displaying such sites (officially)
I personally strongly believe that if you are going to use a software title (no matter pc, pda or elsewhere) you should buy it as a lot of hard working people rely on the income!
However this beeing said in todays market there is too much crap software floating around and there is no way of getting your money back for software you don't want to or can't use so we have to let each other know what works and what doesn't and IGO8 works as opposed to all other navigation programs except TomTom which is all i really wanted to say here!

Yeh Garmin mobile XT runs really well, no problems at all. Its the maps that do it for me, they are just so much more beautiful than tomtoms, and the POIs are massive, its got my local pub in there!!
Your right though, no competition to tomtom, still the best. But you dont know unless you try..

iGo 8 3D
Got it installed, but its well buggy, might wait for the official release
Or try again?

Funny - finding my local has never been a problem, it's finding the way home after 11pm that I struggle with...!

full test results
After a significant testrun it is well buggy with missed phonecalls during navigation and sound lost and trouble exiting.
Once again proves the point of trying before buying
Hopefully the full release will cure these issues because it is fantastic piece of software!

Anyone able to flash a working US/ATT 3G rom

Has anyone been succesfuly at flashing a working US/ATT 3G rom on these released Euro HTC Touch Pro's coming out this week? or do we know if that is not possible because of the hardware? Thanks for helping out a newbie that's anxious to lose a Moto Q9h and pickup an ATT 3G compatible Touch Pro (not willing to buy the crippled ATT Fuze).

Please stop yelling at everyone for not searching. It is far more useful to simply point out that the question has been asked and answered elsewhere, and remind the users of forum policies. I only caution you because if you don't settle down you're gonna end up earning yourself a trip to bannville (note, just word of caution not an official warning as i am nobody of significance here), and you don't want to cut off your best source of information for your device

First of all, that's not even English you just spoke. Second, it's not my arrogance but my pure frustration, I can promise you I never double posted like that when I first came here (not too long ago). Having 10 threads like that floating around is going to be the end of us, as it will someday be impossible to find any useful information in the plethora of repetitiveness. I surely couldn't be a mod, deleting 10 posts just like that every day... Why do we have this google search function and stickies in every forum saying to use it, when nobody does? What a waste.

Please read the post directly above you. Two wrongs don't make a right. You can't be offensive just because you were offended by someone else. If you believe the post needs to be reported, then report it, and if you can speak respectfully then reply. If you can't be respectful then you probably should just skip over the reply, or quote buttons.

Black, Everyone is VERY excited about this device and the posibility of it being flashed with the at&t rom so the US gents can get the 3g also. We all want touch pro's with 3g in the states like you so we can all live in harmony!
Hey, did yours come with a case? Wondering what the US version will come with. I bet it will be like the at&t version of the tilt and NOT include a case. Has anyone seen the case the HTC provides? I looks like garbage! I can't even beleive that HTC would release such a great device with such a poor case.

I have to agree. Although i also agree with Black. I'm actually one of those waiting for this hardspl release and a confirmation of 3g in the US and see 10 posts a day. I don't get that excited about it though :-D I just love to see so much excitement for this phone.

ROM With Sprint Apps

I have yet to find a ROM with the Sprint TV app. I have a friend that has this app on his blackberry tour and it is a fascinating app as you can watch full episodes of tv shows without lag. I tried using Miximo's ROM which featured this app but it does not work. What a bummer... If you know of any ROM that has this working app, please let me know. Peace to all. (Y)

For what phone?
Here's a link for a Hero rom for the 32A/32B with Sprint TV
Download is in the 2nd post
Sprint Hero Rom

When I push Sprint TV app to my phone, the widget works but the app doesn't.

For the Vodaphone 32B, This ROM was particularly slow for me and I did not see and Sprint TV app only Sprint Navigation and Nascar but no Sprint TV... I did not check if it was available as a widget... If it is available where can I locate it on the phone and if it is only available as a widget, does the Sprint TV app work and how well? Thanks

How do I push this app to my phone? Which ROM do you use? and when you say the Sprint TV widget works, how well does it work and which features are available?

Again seriously shouldnt this crap be in qna or the app section. Has nothing to do with development. Unless you actually come up with a fix dont ask ques that are highlighted all over the forums. Oh my bad you prob didnt see them bc your in the wrong section.

Hello? This has everything to do with development, this app is in the process of being developed DUH! I did not realize you wanted to be a moderator. You can think you are but in reality you are underdeveloped in the sense you have no business bringing your negative comments and dictating how things are run. For Christ's sake, go rub one out or find something useful to do in your life instead of wasting your precious time coming in here with you uselessness, makes me sick and irritated all at once... I have a question that has not been answered. Seriously you should get out of here and mind your own business. If you have nothing to contribute to this thread, your useless comment is not wanted nor needed here. If you can answer my question then please do so otherwise use your common sense and try to look deep inside yourself and realize if you have nothing positive to contribute to a thread that has an unanswered question than your best keeping your garbage and nonsense out of here. I'm sure you think you know everything so I hope the next time you have a question to something you do not know or are trying to find out, no one responds! If a moderator feels this thread does not fall under the proper category and needs to be moved they will do so accordingly, but that is NOT your job. Take a hike. Thank you. Peace to all (Y)

it had it on maxima's hero . the widget and program worked but i kept gettin an error saying "no connection, try again later"

Sprint has Blocked all non Sprint user's From using these app, ( Sprint TV ), Nav still works for me... Till Somebody hacks the TV App, It's not going to work.
Likely Looking at the Phone Provider when App starts, or provision of the phone.
anyone's guess at this point.

Thanks for the update Eugene, that makes perfect sense. I suspected it was being blocked but I also thought it could have been an issue with coding because the Sprint Nav app works flawlessly on your ROM and is a valuable asset in my opinion. Well I guess I'll just have to wait and keep my fingers crossed until someone hacks it... The other reason I would like to see the Sprint TV app on the sapphire is because it would give more competition to those with Iphone 3Gs. I do feel slightly humiliated and obsolete when I'm hanging with my friends and they can watch lag-less TV on their Iphone's while I'm pretending the metal detector app on my sapphire works and I get laughed at. While this is all happening, I am reminded that we all have the same unlimited data plan, yet I paid more for my Magic and I have limited functionality in comparison. How sad... *Sigh*

Someone fix this GPS!

I am about to throw this thing out the window. It holds a signal better than my Inspire but I'm in a new state (Louisiana) so I NEED my GPS to work and even Telenav just WILL NOT get a GPS lock and fails. It used to work before ... Ugh I'm so over it! And searching for GPS doesn't get me anywhere... Can someone tell me how to make this thing lock on to the satellites? GPS test finds ONE and it won't lock even after 30 minutes!

What [email protected]## rom/kernel are you #(%$$# running?
No longer sent from my BlackBerry.

If you need GPS that badly, you need to look at garmin or tomtom.

The only way to fix GPS on the Captivate. Download the Amazon app on your phone...then use that to buy a new phone. I heard a couple people did that and now have a 10/10 satellite lock with 3m accuracy.

Get a bluetooth gps antenna !!! It's a cheaper alternative to buying a new phone

Thanks for the remarks but at&t signal is fringe at best in my area and my Inspire can't hold onto it but yet it gets a GPS signal within 2 seconds indoors *facepalm*
As for ROM/kernel/radio.
Fasty III Kj2, 2.6.35.7-I897UCKL3-CL614489, I896UXKH2
I swore I was running an 897 radio. Something is fishy with that... The site said I897 but obviously screwed that up so now I am off to search for a compatible radio - that radio has great voice reception too. DAMN IT! Its always SOMETHING with the Craptivate, isn't it?

Use hellfire's fix. It has always made my gps work wonderfully. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17383148/H3llstorm_GPS_Fix.zip

Watch the swearing in the forums. I will say this only once.
As for your issue the GPS on the captivate has always been known to be less then perfect. the GPS built into a phone should never be used to replace a stand alone GPS mainly when you are new to an area.

not trying to argue, but the rule about swearing is gone from the " member conduct "http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81
however it does say to be aware of what might be offensive to others.
2.1 Language: XDA is a worldwide community. As a result what is ‘ok’ to say in your part of the world may not be ok in someone else’s part of the world. Please think about who is reading what you write. Keep in mind that what you think of as acceptable use of language may not be acceptable to others.

First time I have ever been warned about swearing... And I've been on here for years. I'll try to mind it but if its such a big issue then why not just filter it like all the other forums?
As for the GPS - my Captivate used to have PERFECT GPS locks - and that fix didn't work either... As for the radio, its because KJ2 doesn't work well at ALL in my area...

I have gone over most of your posts sense last night and for the most part you have not been swearing.
As for the rule. Yes it was removed (will be put back soon) as It is understood that we treat each other with respect and understand that kids come to this forum alot. So the swearing is not allowed as it is not excepted in any polite setting.
TRusselo you know me well from my time with the captivate and you know that it is as simple as if you wouldnt want your kids reading it then dont post it.
The sheer disrespect floating around the forums has gotten out of hand and the swearing is a Big sign of it.
While swearing at each other maybe cool in high school or on the street we require that more respect be shown while here.
EtherealRemnant You have been here for a while your right. So you should know better. A few years ago the title of this thread would have been ban worthy, but I am in a good mood so a warning I think will make my point just as well.

Well I apologize for being offensive - I'm sure you can understand how annoying the Captivate can be as a device... I will try to refrain from swearing in the future but I wasn't directing it at a specific person, more at the phone. I understand about the kids though.

Yes I can understand completely. Thank you.

I flashed the latest leak of KJ3 found in the development section, and with the stock kernel and stock everything (only rooted), my GPS performance improved. More than once was I able to get a lock faster when not moving and maintain it a little longer after driving. Of course, it was still pretty crappy... after a few minutes, the phone went back to searching and took ages to lock again, which it did only after I stopped and waited. But I guess it was better than the GPS on any other ROM or even stock that I have tried.

I must have just had a good Captivate. I got it launch day and my GPS performance was spot on... now I don't know what happened to it. And its so annoying to flash things over and over to get it right. I wish I could combine certain parts of my Inspire with the Captivate... Basically throw the Captivate internal storage and antenna into the Inspire... >_>

once again, not arguing, i love a good discussion,
i thought it was the position of xda that xda is not for kids, it is for developers. and that xda caters to the devs, not the random passing people.
and yes some developers are kids, but kids with enough intellect and smarts to know what bad words are and are able to make up their own minds about using them.
I know the rule is somewhat lifted and i refrain from using the words unless they are required to emphasize a point. (sometimes really frickin needed).
but back to topic....
here are some CWM3 flashable GPS configs i put together.
stock Gingerbread ATT
stock Gingerbread Rogers
pb3 GPS tweaks
my personal WIP GPS config (mostly from JSV and some from h3llstorms config)

Grow up people. We try not to use profanity but as adults we also look the other way when it is used. Just because you dont want to see/hear it used doesnt mean you can impose upon others that don't have a problem with it. There are plenty of forums available that won't hurt your delicate feelings.
Carry on.... /rollseyes

Sorry I don't look the other way and anyone that knows me as a mod knows this to be true. It is not a matter of hurt feelings it is a matter of respect. Swearing while talking to someone or asking for help is rude, uncalled for, and not allowed. Simple as that. Now I have been guilty of a swear word every now and then myself, it happens.
And your right T. We do cater to developers which are to be showed respect. That means no swearing at them.
I will not debate this further. Swearing in the forums is not tolerated period. Wanna swear at someone then don't do it here.
As for the kids part as much as I would love for XDA to go back to a true developers site we have to accept that average people are here now and that encludes every kid that gets their parents to buy them an Android/WP device so they can be cool too, even though when they do something they don't understand like flashing a rom it just makes them look dumber then they are.

Trusselo: you do realize that a lot younger generation of kids are getting into things like this. i bet theres more 12-15 year old kids on here than you think which is the future for everybody. i dont see know point in swearing around here anyways.
on topic: ya my gps sucks bad to. i dont even bother to use it

AOKP JB [strike]discussion[/strike] [insert]Q&A[/insert] thread

I am starting this thread to maintain discussion of AOKP jb. Hopefully to pick up where the development thread left off. I'm not sure exactly why that thread is locked but I know that r4ins has NOT stopped developing AOKP for the skyrocket and it would still help progress that development if there were still a place to discuss. (I think it would also be best NOT to mention the circumstances that led to the locking of the AOKP development thread elsewise this one will likely end up locked shortly thereafter as well)
You can find r4ins builds in his goo.im folder. Since this isn't his thread there are no constraints on what will be considered "official r4ins approved releases". Basically anyone that downloads from there is testing. And other users can decide to run a build or not based on the discussion here. There's no lack of people willing to test a new AOKP build, so hopefully we can still post our findings here for other users. Kinda like baconstep's cm9 nightly discussion thread, except it's for us AOKP buttlings.
I didn't ask r4ins permission to start this thread but since we all creep his goo folder looking for new builds anyway, and we can't talk about it there, this would be the best place for it.
Link to r4ins goo.im folder:
http://goo.im/devs/R4INS
Just make sure anything you download says SKYROCKET on it.
Test builds will be labeled as such for those wary of flashing something not completely tested, builds deemed "stable" by r4ins and the testers will be dated.
You can get an idea of what changes might be included with each build by checking out this site: http://gerrit.sudoservers.com/#/q/status:merged,n,z

R4ins I just want you to know that we appreciate all the hard work you do for this community! We love your rom!

Not being able to off-topic your own thread is crap but such is life. Still not really sure what a certain MOD was thinking there but I'm sure he was just doing his job. Half of what made your thread so enjoyable was some off-topicness. It's nice not to see people so damn serious all the time in a dev thread. Let it blow over than make your decision. Stay or go you still get a ton of respect from me for your work here so far. Thanks and see you soon.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. This place is like Hotel California: You can check out but you can never leave.

Thanks guys, yes im still working on skyrocket, i did not and will not abandon you. I was just unhappy with the how things were going in the thread and my inability to have the fun and friendly banter i so much enjoyed.
But as boobah said, we shouldnt discuss it. The builds are up, and new ones will show up from time to time. I didnt leave you guys behind, but XDA may get left behind.

RAINS.
Can you Please let us know the address of your folders (web)?
So far I can only find the sept 9 builds. I can only get up to speed and continue submitting the bugs I find.

Well if you do head over to Rootz or somewhere else let us know. A few other people have left for greener pastures **cough*whitehawks*cough**and seem to be happy with there choice. And thanks for the thumbs up on pulling from you're goo folder. I hate when people do that without getting the OK first.

From now on anything untested will be labeled as a test build for those who a weary of testing. Others will be dated as usual. I will continue to read if this thread stays in tact to help find bugs. Thank you all for your support, and my PM box is always open.

R4ins, you're awesome! I'm getting 14+ hours out of a single charge with normal to heavy use (calls, texts, data on, games, etc.) on the sep 9.2 build. Great build.
How are people getting 2 days on a charge? Or is that bs?

Bugs for 2012-09-14-2
Unfortunate enough, I am still getting ramdom shutdowns with AOKP. Version 2012-09-14-2 didnt improve in that area.
1 crash while the phone on top of my desktop and an incoming call arrived.
2 crashes while doing nothing other than moving the app drawer.
Samsung logo appears, and the screen goes black. Need a force rebook to get the phone working.
Going back to Samsung Stock ICS , Certainly these AOKP are plain fast, but as I depend a lot on my mobile phone, I need it to be stable

1st: After installing 2012-09-09-2, it first asked to join a Wifi Network, 2012-09-14 doesn't, it would be nice to have that back before putting Google credentials. Saves a lot of data.

If you wait too long and it picks up mobile data it wont ask for wifi. If you hit next, and yes to the gmail account really fast before data kicks in it will ask for wifi. I'm a crack flasher so i have that down pat lol.

Just say no to all that stuff and get to your home screen. Then sign into WiFi, then sign into Google. That's what I always do

One: by steering clear of smurfs village,
Two (and more substantially): by being connected to WiFi for two days. I usually only have to charge once on weekends, but during the work week I tend to get around 8-10 hours with maybe an hour and a half at most of screen on time.

But i have to protect them from Gargamel. So wifi uses less battery than data? Ill give it a try thanks. And thanks for starting this thread.

Thank you so much for your work R4IN you have brought much knowledge to our forums and left the influence of SUSE! Haha I have been on your AOKP rom since you released it and will continue to be! Don't let the less intelligible bring you down!
Not sure if this would be a luxury or not but could you make it where when a quick reply is made, it is cleared off of the notifications? Or better yet appoint me to where I can learn on implementing that!

Hint: Before you sign into google pull down the notification bar. turn on wifi then long press it. Pick your network. Enter password. Watch it connect to wifi. I can't be the only one who's figured that out can I?

I wouldn't blame you at all, man.
Downloading 9-14-2 to flash later. I had flashed the 1st 9-14 (dirty) and that didn't work out too well.. just a lot of flicker, and kind of janky all around. But it's cool, it wasn't ready anyhow.

So, is 9-14-2 the newest or is it still in the testing phase?
