Hello all,
I had to post this here since I dont have 10 posts yet, but I think I have found a bug related to Shed's gingerbread (v. 1.6). Well either that or something is wrong with my Eris. I have attempted to view the animated gif weather radar located at mobile.weather.gov/radarhl.php?radar=kbuf but it doesn't work. Can anyone verify this and let me know the results / possible fix? Thanks for the help!
PS - Shed your skills are amazing. Keep up the great work!
PSS - Sorry the link isnt a link above but my post level wont allow for links either.
I am at GSB v1.4 and I can see a radar map of buffalo, but it doesn't seem to be animating. Same thing happens for kvbx (Vandenberg AFB, CA).
I'm not sure it is a bug, it might just be a limitation on the software and/or hardware. Animated gif support is only recently supported as I recall and might not be at all on our hardware.
I took the OP here and put it up on the other thread for you.
Thanks Super_Dork_42!
The loop radar on mobile.weather.gov don't work for me either, but the animated radar on mw.weather.com does work.
Rooted OTA 2.1 Eris - soon to be Gingerbread.

I can see the same thing as you, radar picture with no animation. It was working on my phone at one point so I don't think it is hardware related. I cant remember if it was when I was running XTRAsense or Sheds GB v1.2.

No problem dude. It was just a few days ago when I couldn't post to that thread. I tried to make a thread for those that have fewer than 10 posts could post a question and if someone else wanted to they could quote it to there. It got deleted within five minutes because, while technically not against forum rules, it is loopholing them. Oh well, I can still do it if I want.
I understand why they did that, but I really wish that there was a way I could post directly into that thread. I think that I might get more of a response if it was where it should be. I really want to know what the problem is.
Just go post in the off topic section to get your post count up.

edit.... maybe i should try stuff before i post. i dont need to get band.
sorry
I'm running 1.7.0 so let me re-flash. I just downloaded it and am willing to try. let you know tonight!
The older version did not work at all because the mogul lacks a working direct3d driver, and that seems to be what this program uses to render the maps. Considering this problem affected a large number of HTC devices, hopefully the fixed the problem by using another display method.. Will try...
*edit*
Yes! From the author's website:
-Add Qualcomm CPU device support
-More stable by using new 3D engin which do not need Microsoft direct3d mobile support
-Fix the start GPS bug in some device
Have not tried yet but it looks like it will work.
I keep getting a critical error while trying to start the GPS... wants me to install a .net 3 cab to get the message...
Well the software does work on the mogul now...
Lets take this and throw it into the box with opera 9.405. We will label this box "SOFTWARE MOGUL USERS CANNOT ENJOY BECAUSE WE DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH RAM".
This program will gradually suck every drop of RAM then crash within two to three minutes of just browsing the map.
Working fine for me. Using the new stock rom. Very fast.
Thanks
It did load pretty fast with the new offical Sprint Rom for me.
Hmmm... Whats with the crack. This looks like warez....
Well...with 3.27 radio and 6.1 wm the program runs...locks onto GPS and crashes the program after a couple of zooms with OutOfMemoryException for me.
This looks like a cracked version of a comercial application located here: Google Navigator I don't think it is alowed here. You can go to this website and download free version which works but has some limitation. If you like it, buy it and remove the limits.
Also, please read this on front page!
This is a great community, so let's keep it clean.

Thanks for support.
I didn't flag the post or was rude, just stated the obvious. This is absolutely a cracked application and there are plenty of places on the net where it is allowed and tolerated; so it shoul be taken there. I recently joined this forum and I like it very much. So just wanted to ask to keep the garbage away.
I didn't realize that it was a crack before I downloaded it, but I have not used the crack. I do intend to purchase if it works well. Its a heck of a lot cheaper than Tomtom.

That is basically what is happening to me. Do you think it is a problem with the 3.27 radio; possibly a memory leak due to an incompatibility? Those of you who are trying it with the official GPS ROM (I will not update until dcd has a release that works with the new radio) are you running out of memory too?
i didn't know it was a crack. like i said in the original post... i downgraded to a stock sprint rom so 3.65 rom update would be faster.
i never tried it. just posted it cause i thought i was a good find.
MODS (and members) please forgive me.
next time i test before i post. lol

Seasoned Samsung Vibrant users,
I just got today Sept 30th my Samsung Vibrant, I hope that this GPS problem that I have it's just SOFTWARE and not HARDWARE problem and you may tell me with your experience / suggestions what this is about.
Before the Samsung Vibrant, I was using a HTC Mytouch 3g slide, the GPS on my slide has been very accurate, what I can tell you is that from my bedroom My slide detects properly my home address using Google maps, with Samsung Vibrant usually gives me an innacurate location using Google Maps as well.
I have turned ON the wireless and the GPS on Samsung Vibrant as I did the same with my htc slide and on Samsung Vibrant gives me around 40 to 50 meters difference with a wrong location,
I don't want to use WIFI because it’s not the case, why on my HTC Mytouch 3g slide I don't need WIFI also I won’t have WIFI everywhere where I go, so I want that the Samsung vibrant works at least the same or better than a HTC phone GPS hardware.
so my question Is that a hardware problem or software issue?
My HTC Mytouch 3g slide never fails where I'm in my bedroom or other place where I go and test it and this Samsung is getting me out of my nerves that isn't accurate at all.
HARDWARE or SOFTWARE problem?
If it is software I will wait, but if it is hardware, I’ll be very disappointed.
Thanks I really appreciate your answer about this issue,
I have 14 days to test it and if I'm not happy with it I can return it depending what this problem is.
OMG please use the search function.
It IS a software issue... vibrant is well knows for its gps to be messed up.. the new 2.2 is coming out in approx a month and it will have a gps fix and also make ur phone faster plus alot of other things

I have been trying to refrain from jumping on people for stupid posts, BUT ...
The gps issue has been an issue with the Vibrant since day one, and there are most likely hundreds of threads on it already ....
I know it is a little scary but that search box does not bite ...
Hell a google search of "Samsung Vibrant GPS" should tell you all you need to know ..
Come on people use some common sense and search first, at least pretend to search for the sanity of the rest of us ...

Welcome to the real world!
Been bad since day one.
Wow, everyone is being kinda douchy here. All you have to do is root your phone with one of the many methods, install clockwork recovery and flash either the JI2 GPS fix or this one which is the same thing but uses the JI5 files instead http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796654 Good luck.

Douchy? Douchy , not sure what that means but I am sure it applies to ones who do not search or, fail to see that this question/answer is in about 100 other threads.
NO problem helping people, but you can really only help those who help themselves ...

No i agree with you. I dont think I ever post questions here. I usually use my friend google and figure it out myself HOWEVER I also remember when i first got my very first android phone "G1" and was soooo lost at where to even begin. To the OP... they are right, you can find most anything by searching. I guess I only said that because some people just get plain rude. Not necessarily talking about you watcher64. Your post wasnt bad, just didn't really give any answer.

No offense taken , I just remember the old days of the forum, where this was a place to come learn, not to have the answers handed to you.
Seems everyone is looking for the quick fix these days, and really do not want to learn what they are doing or HOW it is actually done, then yell and scream at the people who help them that they broke their phone ...
EDIT:
Just to clarify I was on here almost 2 years before I asked more than a handful of questions, because 99% of the answers could be found by reading and searching, so it does get annoying that so many people want spoon fed these days.
It took you longer to write about your problems than it takes to search .

Like all the other supposed GPS fixes out there, these don't necessarily work either.

I would agree with you some fixes seem to work for some people , other for others, but they do work, it is just a matter of finding the one that works for you ...
If none work, then may be time to exchange the phone for a new one ...

There is a big difference between not knowing, and "NOT EVEN TRYING", that is the biggest complaint ...
How do you think most of us here got the knowledge we do have, we looked it up, if you work a little for something, you will tend to remember it in the future...
This is a place for Development, and Education , not hand outs, never has been, and should never be taken as so ....
But I digress, you are right why should anybody here give a damn ....
OH because if nobody gave a damn, the people that get ask the questions would not know the answer either ....
No you speak the truth ppl should research, I had an off day when I posted sry if I sounded like a jerk. I do plenty of research on my own b4 doing anything to my phone, and if I brick it I have no one else to blame but myself. For example I have been researching the whole flashing with odin on my spare time, which isn't much still haven't got comfortable enough to try though. I just felt like the guy was getting slapped around a bit too much that's all.

If anyone else is running MIUI 2.1.13 with the latest SiyahKernel, could you please try downloading/installing some app or another from the Android market website? Because I live in a 2g area, I have to download my apps from the website. Any time I try to search for an app in the Market on my phone, my connection times out. I have no wi-fi for the vast majority of my day, so that's also out.
I would really like to determine if this is a known issue or if this is an isolated problem. If it's isolated, I'll reflash in hopes that it will work. If not, I'd obviously rather not.
Did you look in that ROM's thread in Dev to see if anyone else reported a similar issue?
I searched the MIUI thread but didn't find anything. It's possible that I missed it, I suppose, but I don't know what else to search for other than what I already have.
Try to enable sync on all Google related services and then using the Market on the website.
If its turned off then it probably won't get pushed to your device.

Did you before you made this jerk response? Or did you just assume that help was already in that thread.
I made sure that all google services are free to sync as they wish. That didn't do it. I re-flashed MIUI. That didn't do it either, unfortunately.

New users come to xda and ask simple, common questions on a regular basis. It's not uncommon for someone with a low post count to dive straight into posting, rather than utilize the search button.

It didn't look like a jerk response to me. It looked like a reasonable response. He was merely pointing him in that direction to see if it might have been answered, especially since a lot of people on here don't bother to search.
As for the topic, my experience with MIUI is that all the apps never show up in the market, and is part of the reason I've never really stuck with it. It has to do with google not recognizing it as one of the standard UIs on their list for our phone, therefore not all the apps are shown. At least that's what I've seen explained in the past. Hope this helps.

Unlike your response, there was nothing jerky about mine. The guy has 8 posts. It's possible he might not have even thought to look where I pointed him. I said nothing derogatory to him. Any perceived jerkiness is in your head as evidenced by the two following posters. Don't bother with an apology as your screen name fits you perfectly.
Thread cleaned up...
Have the same issue as the author of this thread. Using Nexus S, Kalimchoaz's Rom v. 2.1. Does anyone have any solutions?
I was able to do it just fine on WIUI 2.1.13 -- I probably got around 80 apps that way. However, I was redownloading them and had previously already gotten them, so it may be different. I no longer have WIUI, so I can't check if I have your issue. I guess MIUI may be different than WIUI...

Hey guys, I flashed to this ROM last night http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1650615
I must say its super sexy and works well and i got Gapps working, but seeing as i cannot post in the above mentioned link i would need to post here as per forum rules. The only problem i have experienced so far with this rom is that the Camera still does not work, any ideas when the next build or update is coming out? the camera unit is rather crucial feature.
Other than that, it is great work arco68!!
Thanks
There is no post lock on that post, so you should be able to ask there. Also, it is rude to ask for updates on things like that. The creator will work on updates when (s)he can. Also, the camera is a known issue with ICS, and its not something any of us can work on. Its a driver issue, and it must be remedied by the creator of your phone.
I understand that the developer is busy and it is a "social project" but i dont see why you need to be rude about it
I was not intending to be rude, just informative.

just flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2000828 if you are still having issues following the steps detailed in there.
it's CM10 by Ivendor and it works just fine. The only reported issue is some glitching in the panorama picture but it's only the software glitching not the pic itself.
Hello there,
I recently found the ROM to upgrade the Droid Razr XT912 to JB. Went through the process and it all worked out fine...however I have noticed a few things that I was hoping to get help with.
1.When trying to go into camera it shows up for a second then freezes and a popup says Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped.
2.When going into system settings it has Cyanogen mod infomation there but under OTA updates(Not sure if they are cyanogen mod updates or Verizons) it says Error fetching update info: Invalid ROM(STOCK0JB-cm_spyder) and device(cdma_spyder) combo!
Just trying to find out what I need to do to get the camera working, the other thing may just be as intended with this ROM.
It is the one located at this url here on the site.

From the thread where you downloaded:

Webtop
HDMI
FFC Video
Camera Flash
Bugs?
Normal CM10 bugs like the screen rotation shrinkage.
Volumes
Bluetooth
Maybe more, you tell me!

Hey, here is a good idea..... Go read the thread where you downloaded from. There might be an answer in there. And while you are at it, why not post your question in that thread?
EDIT: There are other people with the same problem in that thread. Not sure if there is a fix. READ IT. Oh, and I notice you cannot post since you only have two posts. Go help 8 people and then you can post your question in the thread if it isn't solved already.
I fixed the problem by downloading a third party camera app for ICS. I would have posted there if I could have, the problems I read about all related to just the flash on the camera not working...not the whole camera itself. I must have missed it in the 12 pages.
I apologize. Did a search for my problem and could not find anyone saying the keywords I was looking for. Thanks for the response as unhelpful as it was.

Thanks for letting me know. My caffeine level is fine though. Thanks for your concern.
I was just pointing out that the OP should read the thread for his specific ROM. That would be the best place for info.
If he had read it (instead of searching it) he would see that there are a few other people that are having the same problem. There are also a few suggestions as to what might be causing the problem and a suggested fix.
That's all I'm saying brah!
And if he would have found a few minutes to make a few posts over the last 6 months that he has been a member here, he would have been able to post in the thread where he is most likely to get an answer from the other people running that ROM, including the DEV.
That's all I was saying!
But again, thanks for your concern about my caffeine levels.
