really specific GPS question - Samsung Infuse 4G

Hello all, really simple question.
(BEEN SEARCHING INFUSE GPS THREADS FOR HOURS WITH NO GOOD CLARIFICATION)
Do I need to have "Use Wireless Networks" checked in order to use GPS feature? Or is that only for usage with google maps?

No, you just need packet data on. I found out after much frustration.

Theme please

Love my new gingerbread deck ROM. I have looked everywhere for a theme/flash zip/anything to give me the sense 6 signal bars and yes I am aware of the false sense of security that they provide by being inaccurate, but dang it, let me have my false sense. Lol. Any help would be wonderful. Thank you so much.

Decks only supports 4 signal bars so it would need to be coded to support 6..
Ugh. So no theme or anything could support 6?

I suppose a theme could hack 4 signal images into 6 but it would look bad..The actual ROM would need to code for 6 signal bars for it to look right.
I'm assuming that is a pain in the butt since I have not found a way to do it..

GRJ90 = No HotSpot

Just FYI to developers. The hotspot was restricted with this update unless you pay for it.

not sure i understand your post, its just a reposting of whats already been made available from yesterday and there are better options. if you meant the manual option i believe sprint means its getting pushed to you and you cant say no. or thats how i took it.
i actually thought you were posting a fix for the tethering, but i dont need that either
You'll notice there are PRL and profile update options now as well...

Maybe...stock kills it for me (but Barnacle still works fine) and Netarchy works at random, Barnacle still works.
So my recommendation, just grab Barnacle and call it a day.

Sprint are d***holes for this one. Its a pretty cheap thing to give people tethering, then grab the carpet and pull it from under them. Looks like custom rom time.
not sure if its been posted, but " wireless tether for root users" in market is working for me...

I'm just trying to figure out why only Gingerbread has bad wifi. Froyo didn't in my experience.

Froyo was offical. It had all the bugs worked out. Gingerbread have all been leaks so my guess is that it is still being worked on. At least i am hoping this is the case because this wifi does just suck.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
The obvious response would be: read or search whats been posted before asking an already covered question. Though id like to know, really what is it that's different in GB to cause this?
Also the wifi is not that bad, it works for home use, you flash back to Froyo if its that much a problem.

Why does it matter? Knowing the reason for it is pretty useless imo.

Stick on antenna problems

I put one of these dumb stick on antennas (as seen on TV) on the back of my battery and it sucked so I removed it. Now I can't get 4g I only get 3g. Any ideas on how to fix?

I have no clue abt this stick...
But if your getting 3g that is great...4g is a misunderstanding...

Never heard of this antenna thing but if it really did hurt something I would say a wipe and reflash would fix your problem.

Those things do absolutely nothing. You probably just have network issues.
