[Q] 4 p505 users - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i found out that fm radio isnt implemented in cm9 yet,
however,
ive tried installing spirit fm and it seems to crash upon opening.
not sure if its a faulty copy of the program, or perhaps others have encountered this same problem.
otherwise ill just give up on radio function in ics 4 for now...

GPS Lag on Sprint Touch Pro 2

Hi,
Let me say out of all the WM phones I used over the pass years, this is the best of the best. I love everything about this phone. The only thing I dislike is the lagging of the GPS, I used, Garmin and IGuidance 4.0 and there is at least a few second delay in making turns. I even used the tweaks, to disable GPS logging etc. and still not much improvement. Can any one help. Thanks in advance, you guys rock.
no one has any ideas on how to fix this? THanks
You mean external GPS ? Or built-in GPS? I'm on Verizon and using the built-in gps there is very little if any, lag.
QuickGPS
Try running QuickGPS if you haven't already. It comes preinstalled on the Sprint Touch Pro2.
ya im sprint...use garmin agps off... use it daily m-f 8hrs plus..never had a issue...
I know this is an old thread, but I'd like to share what fixed my problem in case others are still having this problem with GPS lag.
I tried everything people suggested, modifying the registry, turning off logging, etc.
I flashed the radio rom to the latest Sprint Radio. The VZW radio was what was causing my GPS lag problem. I had a similar issue back when I had my touch diamond too. a new radio flash fixed things.

What version of the radio did you install? Are you saying the Lag is completely gone(no delay any more) ????
This and the FM radio, would make it one of my best phones yet.... (I had my titan maxed out when I had it)

[Q] CyanogenMod6.1 has killed Bluetooth and Flash on my CDMA Hero

I really hope that there isn't a thread that answers this. If there is, I couldn't find one.
I flashed CM6.1 a few days ago, and I've found most of the fixes to my problems. I found the marketplace app in the google apps zip, I found the visual voicemail and sprint navigation apks, and I even found how to semi-sync facebook apps as well.
For the life of me, I can't get Flash 10.1 and Bluetooth working. I found the apk for flash and tried to install it. It crashes my phone back to the Cyanogen loading screen, and that's it. Whenever I go to m.flash.com, it says "the requested file cannot be found" or something along this lines. But Bluetooth is the big issue, I need it for my work. When I turn on bluetooth, it usually doesn't find my Jabra Extreme headset at all. Once in a while, it finds it, but it says "unable to pair with device". I have tried connecting it through the Bluetooth File Transfer app as well. Nothing.
Is there some kind of zip I can flash to make either of these things work for me? (especially the bluetooth) Thank you very much!
Come on, guys, one of you must know something about this....
I would go to your.phones forums and cynogens forums on their website to ask. You might get a quicker answer there.

Your Hero shouldn't have Flash 10.1 working anyway....
Oh and maybe flash a new rom to fix the bluetooth
6.1 broke my BT as well. Try 6.0 RC1 and see if that works--that's the last that worked for me. They switched to a new BT stack after 6.0 RC1 which I think is the culprit for some of us.
CM6.1 is running FroYo which may not be compatible all the way yet with your device. Unless 6.1.1 is out for your Hero yet, it might be best to stick with 6.0.

Non-Sense rom GPS fix [Evo Style]

I was helping my brother trouble shoot his Inspire's inability to get a GPS fix when using MIUI. He told me he had tried all the driver swaps and other methods that are commonly prescribed, and that nothing had worked. However, in CM7 and sense based ROMs the GPS worked fine.
In EVO circles, this is a common problem on MIUI as well. The work around that has been developed is as follows:
1) Install a [near]stock ROM. Anything sense based should work.
2) Turn on the GPS radio
3) Leave it on, and reflash your favorite ROM (MIUI/CM7/etc)
That should fix it. It worked great on his phone, and he is happily navigating in MIUI with full accuracy and a very short acquisition time.
Enjoy!
sounds more like it was a bad flash or bad agps data left behind. but then i dont use miui. There is a bit more involved with the 'evo gps fix' and you havent done any of that. I havent seen any problems thus far with gps that wasnt fixed with the proper methods for cm. miui has its own set of problems and isnt really supported here.

Well this was the method that worked for his phone, after all the other inspire fixes had failed. He'd flashed, cleared, reflashed, MIUI (various releases) and continued to have the same GPS problem. I figured I'd share in case anyone else was in a similar boat.
Cheers,

[Q] Bluetooth Issue - All Jellybean ROMs - All Kernels

Can someone please help me with this. I really want to update to Jellybean but I have the most annoying bluetooth issue on every ROM I have tried.
I have tried all JB ROMs and standard Kernel and the Sultan Kernel. I have asked in a couple of the ROM threads but got no reply.
The issue is when I connect to my car it takes 5 seconds for the sound to transfer from the phone internal speaker to the bluetooth in my car.
Use my phone for work and can't wait 5 seconds in the car when I receive a call before I can hear the other end of the conversation.
It worked perfectly on my old ICS ROM.
Anyone encounter this or know how to fix it?
Thanks a million for help!
turn your phone s-off if u ain't.
:-??

It could be a device incompatibility with the blue tooth receiver.
There are a few devices that just don't work right with the JB roms even though bluetooth does work. For instance on both Bruce's ROM and the offical CM10 rom, I don't have this problem. So it CAN work. But like I said there ar enumerous people who have had issues that turned out to be some kind of issue with the device not communicating well with JB.
It could still be an issue with your phone though. Do you have any apps that might interfere with bluetooh like an automatic volume up app when blueooth connects or something like that? If so, delete all that stuff. See if the results improve.
Do you have another bluetooth device you can test it with? At lest we could narrow down if it's a reciver issue or a ROM issue.
Also try doing a fresh install after a full wipe. Then just boot it up and try it. Don't install anything else. Just see if you have the problem on a completely clean install. If you don't, you might have an app interference issue.

Hi thanks for replying.
I will try Bruce's ROM but the official CM10 ROM didn't work for me.
I don't have any apps that could be interfering as all I have done whilst testing this problem is do a full wipe, install the JB ROM and go and check the bluetooth.
I will check tonight if the issue exists on another bluetooth device and report back any problems.
Cheers

FM Radio recording bug

Hello!
I find one nasty bug. When I try to record anything from FM Radio, the app hangs after some time. The best way to reproduce that is to open FM Radio app, start recording and iconify FM Radio app. Then just do anything else on the phone (for example web browsing). After a while (usually about one minute) I can't open the Radio app, and recording period counter hangs. If you do nothing when recording, it takes much more time till Radio hangs.
Could anyone check, if the problem exists on its phone also, please?
I use my phone with CM12.1 ROM - latest official build (cm-12.1-20150708-NIGHTLY-sprout4.zip). But the problem occurs with other CM12.1 betas also. I noticed only AICP ROM is probably free of this bug.
Did you find solution ? i also have the same issue

Well, I'm not sure if this is what you wanted to hear, but it seems the problem is solved in Android Marshmallow or in CyanogenMod 13. Unfortunately I noticed that the sound quality (both OSes) isn't very good, but in many application it's enough.
And one more thing. I noticed the Android Radio have some problems with wakelocks. I'm not sure if CyanogenMod's version is free of this bug.
