[Q] Help!! GPS stopped working! maybe related to setCPU

hello guys,
'
im in deep s***. so i have a samsung captivate. and one day I accidentally hit the "power save" setting instead of "conservative" setting. and after boot it slowed the whole phone down to unusable. but thankfully i manage to crawl in and change the setting back to conservative.
everything seems to be normal now, except GPS!
now it hardly sees more than one satellite, and if it does, it shows all of them on top of each other in the north, and NEVER gets a lock.
what do you guys think is wrong? and how can I fix this? (
thank you

No, it installs some files for gps to work better. No wipe.

Thanks for the reply but I am currently running Cog 2.1.6 with Atinm's v1.10 build. I havent reflashed my phone in quite some time but was wondering if this JM9 fix also works on my phone with the build I am running. I searched the forums and it says this is for Eclair JM9. How do I find out if this is JM9? My baseband version is I897UCJH7. I assume my phone is JH7 so this will not work, however, you also said that it works with stock rom which is JH7....so I am a wee bit confused here.
Thanks.

could you please outline the procedure if you dont mind?
I load this to SD card, then boot into recovery or go thru ROM manager, and then what steps?
thanks a lot

tried this yesterday, but no luck. GPS same. worse, now my PC does not recognize my SD card!!!

[Q] Why does my screen come on by itself?

The lockscreen whether its charging or not comes on by itself at random times and sometimes several times in a row. When its not charging, it obivously kills my battery. I thought it might be related to the rom im using, but i have tried several different roms and they all do the same thing. Another thing is my speakerphone will come on by itself when i answer a call. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

any ideas?

Sounds like something is set to turn the screen on. Do you have any custom messaging apps? What rom are you running? any mods? please provide as much info about your phone as you can to help find the issue

Right now i am running Android Revolution. When i first got the phone it had the Ingersoll Rom installed and i don't remember it doing it then, but since then i have tried, coredroid, rcmix3d, virtuous, honeysense, leedroid and they all do it. I have both "s" off. No i did have chompsms installed a while back, but have done several data wipes since then. No other mods. It is eating the hell out of my battery by doing this and i am starting to regret trading my iphone for it.

I would flash a sock rom and see if it does it. might be a phantom file that is not getting over written. If it doesnt do it then then reload the rom. are you restoring any system data or apps?

Sounds like you have a device issue, car panel should only come on when it is plugged into the car dock, might be a USB port issue

Sorry to hear ur issues. I can understand ur frustration but don't leave a general remark like this, cos what u r experiencing could be a stray issue due to some random app.
Anyways, coming to ur issue, try this once:
1. Format ur SD card
2. Copy the Android Revolution 5.1.10 (I am saying this ROM cos I've been using this since 5.1.7 and its been good all along)
3. Go to CWM console
4. Do the factory wipe option (data/cache wipe)
5. Go to advanced and wipe the dalvik cache
6. Flash the ROM
7. Reboot
Do NOT restore any apps or data using TiBu.
Let me know how it goes. (I am subscribing to this thread )
Edit:
1. I had the speaker phone turning on issue on a couple ROMs, but didn't face it in Ginger Beast and this ROM.
2. Reg. car panel, I heard this issue on here many times on different ROMs. U cud simply freeze the app or delete it altogether if u r not using it. And like Zel said, this could be cos the charger u r using has current coming through that's around the same range as that of car charger.

Is it possible the sdcard is bad? I am about to format and reinstall android revolution right now. Ill post the results.

OK, flashed Android Revolution. The speakerphone still comes on automatically. Will keep an eye on the screen to see what it does. I have not any installed any mod, or apps yet. Totally clean install.

OK, it didnt do it as often, but the screen still came on. I'm not 100% sure, but i think it came on as data was being used? i noticed the data arrows moving. Formatting and flashing coredroid now and testing.

1. Did u restore any apps?
2. Do u have any of ur apps on SD card?

nope and nope

This is strange... Hearing for the first time. Could u pls post this on the Android Revolution thread and see if anyone else faced this issue. As far as I can recall, I don't remember seeing any such thing on that thread.
Edit: You could try re-downloading the ROM zip. Sometimes zips can be corrupt too.
This time when u try, please backup ur data on SD card, and format it fresh, and load only the rom zip on it.

[Q]wifi problems in ICS

hello,
i've been trying to get my mt4gs to turn wifi on in ics. when i turn it on it says, "turning on" but just goes back to "off". i tried turning it on via settings and via the panel. i do a full wipe every install -reset data, clear cache, wipe dalvik cache. also not sure if it's related adb cannot detect device when booted but works fine in recovery when in ics.
i've read and tried the various .zip files for various radio/kernel posted by football but still no go. i may be overlooking a step when flashing but here is my device info:
CWM Recovery version 5.5.0.4 also used 5.0.2.7
Baseband: 11.59.3504.00U_11.16.3504.20_2
HBOOT: Unlocked
DOUBLESHOT PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.45.0013
RADIO-11.16.3504.20_4
Nov 21 2011
it works using gingerbread - tried OTA Stock, as well as bulletproof and it connects ok, but i need to turn wifi off first if i need to reboot otherwise i get the same issue, wifi won't turn on.
sorry for the long post, and forgive me if i missed an already existing thread. thanks for reading. any help is greatly appreciated.

well what rom are you using

I had the same problem with certain ROMs. Sometimes it would even say instead of switching back to off it would just say error. I used Dark Raider for Vivid and had that problem. I did everything and gave up. I downgraded my vivid to GB and rooted it. WiFi is an essential to me so I have to stay where I can switch it on. I hope there's a fix for this soon.

that's what i've encountered with ics, on gb, if i forget to turn wifi off before rebooting, my wifi will just say error. so i end up having to master reset too.
thanks for the reply.

when you flash a rom, are you restoring a backup in titanium or something?

i have never had this problem and i have tried every rom on xda and rootzwiki

I've had this happen too. I've fixed it by using fastboot and flashing the boot.img from the ROM or Kernel update that I had last installed. My phone is s-on so I have to do that everytime I apply a ROM or am update that has a boot.img in it.

i tried doing that as well, my phone is S-OFF.

It was really frustrating for a while. It was the exact symptom you have described. I kept trying by flashing the kernel with fastboot, then flashing the ROM, and then flashing the kernel again with fastboot. It seemed that whenever I changed something, I had to use that sequence to get it to work again.

i think i will try this method. i'll try with the previous roms i've posted first. i'll post my results later today.

Update
Wifi still no go using ICS. Is there a recommended radio version when using ICS ROMS?
Any stock GB Rom version wifi is ok. Using Bulletproof 1.1 works fine as well. Tried v0.9b WildchildICe and update4 of unofficial cm9 and still no wifi. Gonna stick with WildChildIce rom for now and try different Radio combinations.

U got the problem solved? I have exactly the same issue each damned time

When you flash, try mounting system and data in recovery prior to the flash. There used to be an error where wifi would hang as described if those were not mounted upon flashing. Couldn't hurt to try.

Try this. Go HERE. Go down to the 3rd post. Look for GanOptimizer & follow the instructions. No promises but sometimes that will lock it on in ICS.

Can't find stable Android 4.x ROM/ Kernel

Hi guys,
I'm trying to find a Android 4 ROM/ Kernel that doesn't randomly reboot my MT4GS. So far no luck with CM 9.1 from scverhagen r8, r9b, r7b and the experimental 10a3, AOKP 4.2, CM 10 has been most stable of all so far but drains battery soo fast and also got me random reboots or shutoffs sometimes... The other ones usually reboot very fast after flashing. About 10 minutes after that, at least if the phone sits idle. Maybe when the phone is going to sleep or deep sleep? (Don't know what that is exactly)
Since these ROMs seem to be very stable with a lot of you guys, maybe I'm doing something wrong? I always wipe and format data and system and wipe battery stats and dalvik cache before flashing and don't use the phone for 7 minutes after rebooting... I have the newest radio I could find in the forums which is Radio 11.59.3504.00_11.16.3504.20_2
As always, your help means a lot to me and is greatly appreciated.

And yes demkantor, I know some apps are problematic and cause reboots/ instability, however I recently tested without installing any apps to be absolutely sure, even without gapps and it still crashed/ rebooted.
I am still without a clue, even you guys don't have another idea? Haha I don't get computer stuff even after all these years...
Oh I got another idea. Maybe my battery is broken and because most kernels optimize battery use and undervolting etc, maybe this results in my phone crashing or rebooting? Also, maybe a reboot means a problem with the rom/ kernel and a crash (instant shut down) means higher propability for a battery problem?
Man I'm really desperate hahaha

Is it only with the experimental kernels or does this happen on stable kernel as well?

Most kernels probably wont have undervolting built it, and yes as your rev soff you dont need to flash the kernel seperate.
Battery could be a culprit but not a common cause, maybe pull a last_kmsg next time it happens

You're having problems with every single 4.X series ROM you flash? Even with the original kernel that is supplied with that ROM? That just sounds SO weird! Almost as if you have a secured bootloader. Even with S-Off, that would keep it from flashing with the ROM. You haven't flashed a different bootloader sometime have you?

This information could of course be fake But if you guys say battery is probably not the problem then it seems to be a good idea to flash a bootloader from the forums...
And again thanks for your help, I am kind of moved haha

If you try to flash a new bootloader the only way to get soff again would be via the wire trick, more complicaed then the revolutionary method but better, at the same time not neccesary.
If you know how to pull logcats last_kmsg is easy, if not its still easy and a quick google search will tell you how

A fresh battery wouldn't hurt. Before I rooted, my phone would have random reboots and shut offs once the battery went below 60 percent or so. I did factory resets and tested with different apps installed and only a new battery fixed it. Best of luck!

Ok, right now I'll not try flashing bootloader since everything seems to be normal.
What I did to get last_kmsg:
Code:
Open terminal app
Enter "su" to get root privileges
Enter "cat /proc/last_kmsg > /sdcard/last_kmsg.txt" to save current log.
Close terminal app.
I attached the last_kmsg.txt. What do I do with it now? I don't have knowledge to understand it.

I can't remember using a ROM that never crashed, but I'll try a stock ROM if nothing else works. However an old kernel of scverhagens CM 9.1 seems to work flawlessly if battery is not about < 15%. The newest r10 kernel on the other hand always immediately crashes when the phone is not charging. When charging I haven't experienced a crash yet. That's strange and makes me suspect my battery is the problem.

So, I'm reviving this thread, because I stopped writing only because my phone was broken. Now it's back and I'm facing this problem again.
I've tried a lot of the 4.x ROMs here from the forums, but all of them rebooted or shut down after 5 - 10 minutes after flashing. I also tried some without flashing gapps even, but still the same symptoms. Also tested it with my new battery, nothing changed. Even the scverhagen CM 9.1 ROM rebootet shortly after flashing that worked longer previously (guess that was just by chance)
Now I've tried the original image and it works! Ugh. So what can be wrong, any ideas?

I was having this issue as well and it ended up being my battery. I had ordered those gold ones and luckily had kept my stock. Plugged the stock one in and my reboots went away. Not sure if that's your issue. My brother had this issue and we updated his CWM that was older to the latest TWRP and that fixed his reboots. Hope either of those suggestions help

It happened with both stock and new battery (Anker).
Thanks, update to latest TWRP had been my next try, if it didn't work now. But it does! Yeaaah so happy Thanks to everyone again. Almost three hours uptime and not a single issue so far!
To conclude: What I did:
Revert completely back to stock with BlueIX6's stock image (except that phone was still s-off and sdcard not wiped).
Then followed instructions to unlock bootloader, flash CWM recovery and finally flashed ROM (see sticky thread). Works like a charm!
In hindsight maybe radio made my phone unstable... I think it's the only thing that's different from now.

No Sound.... AGAIN.

Ok. First off, system sounds are totally fine. Any and all music etc works. The problem comes in when making a call, its just gone. It doesn't ring or anything at all, other side hears nothing as do I. Restarts didn't fix, nor did flashing the modem. Previously a restore fixed it this time it didn't though. What could it be? Is it possibly just a software glitch? This one has me stuck since it just randomly happened, both times it just occurred for no reason.

Maybe the ear speaker is gone. Try to make a call on speaker.

Nah it is just no sound. Almost like the call isnt connecting but it is. No sound at all on speaker or earpiece. I had thought of that.

It's on StraightTalk. The phone is Unlocked it had MA7 which worked fine also tried LF6 but no change at all. Tried another ST SIM as well, same issues and the SIM worked in the other phone. In fact both did. It was not on stock. It is on PAC V19.

Try radio version UCMC1. I don't think UCLF6 is supported on that version of PAC is it? I would also check your APN settings if you haven't done so already. Otherwise its probably a hardware problem.

Even if it was APN it shouldn't suddenly unset. As for modem AFAIK it should work since they get signal. I may end up just doing an ODIN to total stock then checking it. If it still doesn't work I would guess hardware but that means I now have an expensive ass brick that literally nothing has changed on and it no longer works properly.

Ok. First of, system sounds are totally fine. Any and all music etc works. The problem comes in when making a call, its just gone. It doesn't ring or anything at all, other side hears nothing as do I. Restarts didn't fix, nor did flashing the modem. Previously a restore fixed it this time it didn't though. What could it be? Is it possibly just a software glitch? This one has me stuck since it just randomly happened, both times it just occurred for no reason.

I'm having a similar problem after I rooted my phone and installed CM10. No sound or mic on phone, Music, YouTube, Netflix doesn't play sound either but I get other system sounds like phone ring, etc.Now my phone will work if I put it on speakerphone and I can hear the call and they can hear me. Also everything works if I use Bluetooth. I'm subscribing to this thread in the hopes you can figure it out and I can try it as well.

the answer has been given repeatedly and stickied, if having issues on roms and cant figure out if its hw or sw, wipe everything and restore to stock via odin, if still having probs then its more than likely a hw problem, flashing stock w/odin is really not that hard todo on the skyrocket and the howto is also stickied

Yea I figured as much. Just thought it was really odd that it happened twice and last time just restoring a backup fixed it.

Its the modem, and its been stated many times if your on a jelly bean ROM that you need a jelly bean radio

Don't be a moron. v19 is 4.1.2, it was running UXUMA7 which is 4.1.2 when the error occurred. I tried UCLF6 which is ICS but it changed nothing at all. I also reflashed UXUMA7 to no effect. I know what I am doing, I know what I am talking about but since this isn't a phone that I personally use nor update all the time (ie I don't keep up on things for the Skyrocket) I dunno if there is a bug that causes this or what. That is why I posted, I figured if it was a glitch people here would know and could give me a clue. Its fine now though I flashed it to stock and fixed it.

Long story short, that didn't necessarily work in my case so I have some other issue. Flashed back to stock and sound works but the phone starts freezing after the first time I reboot, turn off the phone, or swap in a new battery.
