[Q] Legend 2 ICS Edition GPS Problem for Infuse

Hey guys, so I just finished up changing my infuse over to Legend 2 ICS edition and I've been playing with it for about a week and I'm having a rather large issue. Whenever I leave the gps ability enabled so that my apps can find where I am the phone has a tendency to dump battery life like there is no tomorrow but worse than that it stops sending and accepting text messages randomly while the rest of the phone continues to operate. There are no warning signs so that I know this is happening and I have to reboot the phone to get it to work again. If I leave the gps feature off this is not an issue however, this is rather useful to have running so that my apps all work. Any idea how to fix this problem?? Thanks for your time.

I've been running legend 2 for almost a couple weeks and legend before that, my gps was buggy at first-it wouldn't lock on to my location. I did a complete wipe and reinstall, then let the phone boot up and let it settle for a while before I did anything else. Haven't had any problems since

use clean wipe, I run that a few times just before I flash a rom now, haven't had any problems since I started using that.

Thanks a bunch I'll try that out and get back to you on if it works or not in the next couple of days.

Thanks
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, work had me pretty tied up for a while. Thanks for the help everything seems to be working fine for the most part now. I need to reboot every once and a while due to overheating but I think thats just the fact that the phone is adjusting to the new ROM. Thanks again for the help.

Hmmm, the phone shouldn't be overheating at all, do you do any tibu system restores? I've had an app cause an overheating problem before. One thing I've learned is when you do allot of flashing, checking out different roms or themes, its good to just do an odin or hemdall flash back to stock that has repartitioning.
It gives you a fresh start.

TiBu
I have done TiBu on the phone however I did have to flash it back to stock with odin partway through flashing this rom the second time because I bricked the phone, I'm still at a loss because I need to restart the phone usually once a day because it stops accepting and sending text messages without warning while everything else still works. It's kinda weird, I've been chalking it up to the fact that its a new rom and the phone needed to get used to it but it doesn't seem that way anymore.

Have you tried the new version 3 to see if maybe that helps? This is first Ive heard anything like this. I guess it works fine using another rom?

I didn't even know there was a version 3. I'll have to go take a look at that and see what happens. Thanks for the help.

Still having issues
Ok so I'm still having an over heating issue and my phone refuses to send or recieve texts for periods of time. I'm going to delete a couple of apps to see if they're causing the problem. If that doesn't work any chance that I'm having a hardware issue with the phone, it wouldn't be the first time I've had issues this would be my 5th replacement due to hardware issues in the phone.

[Q] Accelerometers die after some minutes from boot

Hello, before I installed Sky Map everything worked perfect on my rooted n5. I uninstalled skymap because I noticed that the app isn't working with 4.4 (cannot get input from sensors, so the sky stays still and you cannot point any star).
After that my N5 seems to "switch off" all of the accelerometers after about 10 minutes or half an hour. Until I reboot there is no way to make these sensors work. Every wallpaper or app that I can use for testing the accelerometers is like frozen.
Anyone noticed this behavior on his nexus? I cannot keep rebooting over and over all day long.... And there's nothing to flash or recovery since I didn't flash anything weird.

I noticed that EVERY sensor was dying after a couple of minutes. I flashed a CWM in order to wipe dalvik cache (I found in some forums that this operation may help) but got stuck in "wiping cache....".
Hard rebooted with longpress of the power button... and at the restart the phone was unable to read the (gsm) networks too.
So I downloaded the latest stock firmware and flashed it over.... goodbye. Things looks okay now, but I hate to be defeated so easily: the problem is that I fear a full-brick since this ain't no SGS2 any more and there's no usb jig to use in case of disaster. (happened 4+ times on former gs2).
I hope that a factory flash/downgrade won't be the solution for everyone having my same sensor issue.

Did you install any app that monitors the barometricc pressure when sleeping/standby?
If yes, this is a known issue because the access method to sensors while sleeping are different in 4.4.
Apps like these, that were correctly working with 4.3, will crash all sensors like barometer, cyroscope ... compass in 4.4.

try installing an app to read all the sensor data, like this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.innoventions.sensorkinetics
if EVERY sensor look dead probably it's a software issue, if only the accelerometers don't work... my feelings would be that's a hardware fault... In that case it'd be better to ask for a replacement

Yeah that app reads accelerometer movements on x y z I think its a software thing. I'll try re flashing to see if problem's gone .. I'll post the result

nexus 5 unfortunately camera has stopped

Hello
recently i took my nexus 5 to lg and they replaced my motherboard
now about almost a month later
all the sudden i get this error
"
unfortunately camera has stopped"
the only fix to this is to restart it,it works fine after that
this use to happen to me on stock
now i rooted it and am using DroidKang ROM
what shall i do guys ?

Try a non aosp based ROM like CyanogenMod they may have done things different try that if it doesn't work call lg again
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

@hollowback
Force Close camera and gallery... Clear camera and gallery cache/data and reboot...
Now see whether you get the error again after sometime?
Btw, when LG had replaced your motherboard, were you rooted? Did they check whether you had a unlocked bootloader or anything like that??
-Flowed from an IceCold Hammerhead!

This is actually a very common issue. As of now the best fix is a reboot. It's triggered by certain apps. Do you use snap chat?

I used to have that issue. If I remember correctly it would happen when you would sleep the phone while in snapchat.

hello friends
first
"when i gave it to him he just opened it then chagned the motherbaord
i dout he saw the root thing.
he said i have a fungus on the board he showed it to me i wonder how that happened he said
it could be sweat and then he changed it :/
its kinda hard i still dont understand i had this cover since almost the start i wonder how water could go in cause i took care of it
second
well yeh i did install snapchat recently
before it use to crash without snapchat
well as soon as i restart it works perfect
what shall i do guys ? is this normal or ?

Poor/Broken GPS performance

Hi,
The GPS on my Oneplus One appears to be very close to broken after the OTA update to 5.1. My phone is completely stock - ie not rooted, locked bootloader, the whole lot. Everything else on the device works beautifully.
I've searched around and it doesn't appear to be a very common problem with this phone.
The GPS worked flawlessly on 4.4 and I think on 5.0 (was only on 5.0 for a couple of days before the 5.1 OTA came through).
Using GPS test I can see 32 satellites, but it will very, very slowly fix to 7 or 8 and sometimes get a lock, mostly not.
Is this something anyone else is finding, or has a fix for?
I'm not against rooting and flashing another ROM, it just seems a little overkill when everything else works so well.
Thanks in advance for any help...

Did you tried GPS Fix from Playstore?
Sent from my A0001 using XDA Free mobile app

^^^ Yes, often resetting and downloading new AGPS data can fix this. I use GPS Status & Toolbox.

Thanks guys. "The GPS Fix" app sorted it out. I'm not sure what it actually does behind the scenes but I'm getting a solid lock instantly now.
Is this something I'm going to need to do periodically, or after a reboot to keep it working?
Cheers...

I travel a lot internationally and only have to do it when I go to another region. Once I'm in a region for a while, I just leave it alone.

This is what I used http://ejvyas.blogspot.com/2015/10/one-plus-one-bacon-gps-fix.html

Did it work well long term?
I thought I'd fixed this with the apps mentioned earlier, but it's still pretty poor. 30 seconds plus to fix and then drops out constantly...

Same issue here.. It started after the last update..I travel for business and I use the phone to plan my route.. Last trip had great weather yet horrible drop off. Hasn't gotten any better since..

Just bought this

Hello guys, i just bought this device a couple of days ago, for just 49.900 KWD = less than 150 USD, for its specs this is a steal.
Anyways, the device is awesome , but the development is dead, whats going on here.
I had poco f1 back on 2018 and it's development is going on.
Now i have poco f2 pro, but i liked the u12+ design.
The problem is the battery doesn't last 4 hours of sot during the day!
Is there any solution for it?

lol, me too Mostafa, i bought mine from FCC for 49KD
I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the beta viper rom, android 11
battery is the same, it's how it was built, it never lasts longer than 4hrs sot, but im hoping it will be improved once the viper rom goes into stable release
if you need any help you can pm me your phone number

Hahahahahahah.
The device is awesome bro, i unlocked and rooted too, but checked viper and read it has some issues, can u tell me your experience.
As i want to use the device as my main daily driver.

You can def use it as a main driver, get Viper, it's great.
If you check the last page in there or perior, i posted a reply mentioning few bugs, and most of them i fixed, rest are minor bugs that wont affect your usage that much, hence why i said once stable is out, the rom will be amazing
PS: What are you using right now if you dont mind me asking ? Stock n rooted ?

Yup stock and rooted.
I will try it today , thanks a lot bro

managed to flash it after a couple of failed tries an hour ago.
first impression >> amaaaaaazing.

Mmmmm okey , i'm really not sure cuz i flashed the rom 3 timed till now, and every time it worked with a different order of steps
But the last time which i fell it more stable.
-Booted twrp
-Adb pushed all the files and fixes i needed.
even the system.img as i don't know why it never worked for me to flash it from download mode.
- flashed twrp img then magisk 21.1
as the newer version cuzed bootloop for me( idk i might be wrong and the reason is something else)
- flashed all the fixes i wanted.
-Entered download mode erased userdata, system.
-Rebooted to recovery
- flashed system.img and gapps.
- rebooted
- never really cared about cts so haven't done it's fix.
Anyways cbk app and kuwait id app always detect root even after activating hide in magisk
Last thing the only way i found to get ytvanced working is to flash the old magisk module for it.
Old but better than not working at all.

Have you found a fix for auto rotate, and the broken auto brightness or the in calls bluetooth headsets?

Auto-rotate isnt broken, just goto settings > Edge Sense > Holding gesture & turn off Smart rotate
As for the Auto Brightness, i never had an issue with it, what's your issue ?
Bluetooth is working fine for me if i connect through the AUX BT dongle that i have in my car, never tested headsets.

yup, you're right about the auto rotate.
but i have a very strange behavior regarding auto brightness, may be the rom needs one more time flashing, lol.
cuz each time i flash it , it gets more stable.

That does not answer my question what is the auto-brightness issue you're facing ?
Also, re-flashing the ROM multiple times isn't going to make it stable-ER

the issue i have is the auto brightness is uncontrollable, sometimes it reaches it's peak and never cool down, and once you lower it down manually, it never goes up !
there's a certain point it operate within , even when i slide it below this point it goes to zero again.
i will upload a vid for it.

I see, well you can try something, go back to stock, and see if it behaves the same, if it does, then your sensors aren't working and you'll need to take it to FCC, just make sure you re-lock it before you do so
If it's normal on stock, then yeah, it's a ROM issue.
For me, not being able to use CBK & the Civil-ID app is a huge deal breaker, i'm going to return it back to stock and sell it, and just use my Xiaomi Mi10T 5G PRO again

On stock it works perfect, so there's no issue with the sensor.
The bad thing about this device if you relocked it. It says ( relocked ), they will know anyway.
Unlike my poco f2 pro, before i sent it to blooms for cleaning the speaker, i had to relock it, and it says locked.
Why htc made such thing!!
Yesterday, i was in Fahahel and i found FFC store and asked them about a cover and screen protector for the device, they said they don't have!!!
They are the only one selling the device in kuwait and they don't have covers for it.
But if you dying for it they can import it from UAE for 7 KWD

It to

Maybe if you waited for the stable rom, thay can solve the issue, or maybe there's a workaround.
For me i'm using it as a secondary device for music n videos.
And it's elegant design and color.
