[Q] GPS-less Wireless Location Problem on CM9 RC1 (OpenSensation or HyperSensation)

I'm using the following ROM (OpenSensation | CyanogenMod 9 RC1) as of 27-06-2012.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494373
Nevertheless, this problem has also happened on HyperSensation, which is also CM9 based.
The wireless location service (the one exclusively based on WiFi connection rather than on GPS) does not work at all with this ROM. I have it activated on system setting. But, every application (like Google Maps, for instance) does not recognize this service as activated. Google Maps even displays a message asking me to turn the service on. If I turn GPS on, then I can localize my position. For all other ROMs I have used with this phone (including ICS ones like MIUI, AndroidRevolution HD, for instance), this service works just fine.
I guess this is a question for the development forum, but I'm not allowed to post there since I'm a newbie in the forum. However, I have some experience flashing ROMs. Anyway, I just searched for some thread about this issue and found nothing.

Flash gapps.. it needs the networklocation.apk or something... I had the same problem before... I use root explorer to put that apk to system/apps folder then set permission and install it like normal app and reboot.
This is how the permission should be:
(Long press the apk to show option and choose permission)

Thank you very much. This issue was preventing me from using CM9. It worked just fine.

Don't worry the phone boots and works without any bugs!!!!!

No. Accelerometer is annoying sometimes. This disables it and instead uses your front camera to detect and switch orientation.

I don't think it works. I did this mod too. I just didn't share. I just use rotation lock now because this drains a lot of battery.

Hello,
Thank you for the nice thread.
I have 3 questions :
1) Does the phone need to be unlocked before starting ?
2) If no for Q1, will it be unlocked after the operation ?
3) If yes for Q2, ii it possible to relock later ?
Thank you.
Laurent

just a few questions @abadan
1. if you have tested it on your tab, what gives you assumption that it may work on PHONE?
2. why are you providing the third party source (placed in the domain greenroid.com, belonging to the Iran), instead of the original domain kingoapp.com, which is Chinese (and was several times claimed as suspicious?
IMHO, the app itself was several times mentioned as stealing the IMEI number, first.
Secondly, only the original source download gives more or less assumption that the app is (RELATIVELY) safe and updated to latest version.
Finally, the Chinese source of app was, as I mentioned previously, claimed several times to be unsafe. I'd be careful before I'd decide to trust another "very trustworthy" source...

No point using something like this... plus, it has been mentioned many time here on XDA, anyone who looking for an easy root solution should try the safe root first... no hassle and takes few min to get it done

Stock Camera App

Anyone know where i can get my hands on the stock camera app?
I installed the CM mod and its working great and i love it. but i miss the camera app that came with the phone. It had everything i needed and nothing more.
Is it possible to extract it from the backup i made of the phone before i flashed it? Is there an apk i can download? My wife is still using the standard software version of the phone can i extract it from that?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm referring to the one idol 3 comes with not the Google app. Google app is nice but it doesn't have the "hold down and take 10 pictures in burst"and the hdr is slower

same issue with me. though i found a different link with all the stock apps. http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/help/upload-apk-files-stocked-apps-t3149328 .they do the same thing. so im wondering if there is a special way other then just clicking the apk and then install.

Maybe the flashing a zips will do the work.. ? @famewolf is this related to odex/deodex rom apps?

I have no idea on that one. You might try asking @Androidcid The author who made the andromeda camera mod. He'd probably be able to answer.

You can use Google Camera App , It looks like stock one and very fast, I am using it.

Problem with Samsung browser for Android 4.0

Hy guys!
I'm new here on the XDA forum. I hope to receive from you the necessary information in order to solve the problems on my device SM-G920F but also that I will help you in solving your problem as much as I can.
To begin with I have a problem with the Samsung browser for Android 4.0.10-51:

After the update should have the option of entering into secret mode browsing with fingerprint. However on my device, this option is unavailable. Look like a older version.
My Knox is 0x1. Maybe that's the problem?
Can any of you what the problem is and how to solve it?
Tnx a lot!!! ?

I have the same problem, I used to have it on 5.1.1 before the update, I tried a clean install of marshmellow, yet no change.

Nobody knows what is the problem. I was looking for best way to solve the problem but no luck.
Are you root your phone?

Yeah, I rooted my phone but I restored to stock 5.1.1 for the new marshmallow update, and the 'enable secret mode' button is gone for no reason, it must be disabled due to tripping know.

That's it. So problem is that the device was be rooted. That may be.
Do you in your fingerprints settings have any additional options as "Enable secret mode with fingerprint" ??? Some say that they have and I do not have it. See screenshoot...
