Unable to turn off GPS with Widget - HTC EVO 3D

When I use the GPS widget my phone resets, I get the white screen with the HTC logo, then I get the loading screen and then the main screen refreshes.
I can turn it off using the quick settings just fine, tried rebooting the phone but that doesn't fix the issues. Any ideas?

I have the same issue. Anyone have any suggestions?

Try uninstalling the 4g sprint corp widget.

I don't see where I can turn that off.

I remember this /was/ an issue when 2.3.4 came out, I also had a problem with mobile data (3g) but for some reason they fixed themselves.
Download a widget for GPS off the marketplace to replace the broken one.
Other than that I'm not really sure, sorry, but I only had these problems with stock.

Go into settings, manage app, all, 4g corp widget. I had the same problem, I removed the update on the widget and the gps worked again.

It's for sure the 4g corp widget, but I moved the update to system instead of data as an update and it fixed my Mobile.Network and GPS widget.

I don't see anything in Settings>>Manage Apps that says "4g corp widget".
I see something called "HTC Sense", but there are 2 instances of it there. Also, how exactly does one remove the update as you stated.

Go to Settings- Applications- Manage Applications- (tab) ALL- Scroll down until you read, Settings Sprint Corp 4G, select it and click on Uninstall updates. Widgets will all work accordingly as they did before the last minor update. And no it wont hurt your 4G or anything.

I had the same problem after the update. I did a factory reset and everything worked fine since. So...if you don't mind reloading your apps, just do that.

EVO 3D constantly syncing??

My phone shows the syncing icon 24/7. I have rebooted and also checked which apps are syncing. I don't have any custom apps that sync, only the Google apps. Under settings, it shows gmail and everything syncing but they just never finish. Anyone have this glitch?

Did you install the update? I think the update is suppose to fix this. I haven't installed the update but I have also not seen this happen on my device yet.
No, I haven't updated. I was trying to avoid because I don't want to miss out on root, but I guess I'm going to have too because this is killing my battery.

LOL....i just sent HTC another email about this.....i constantly get the SYNC icon in the NOTI bar....and in "accounts and sync" its not showing anything syncing....
Well I just went into system updates and updated the HTC software only. It fixed the problem so if I don't get root in the next three weeks this phone is going back to Sprint.

Too funny. You sent an email about an issue they already released a fix for.

This worked for me. If you created an HTC Sense account it's set to sync whenever anything changes (Push). Go to Settings-Accounts & Sync- click on HTC Sense and change the update schedule to something less ridiculous like an hour or more instead of push. Hope that helps.

If you guys haven't applied the updates then I wouldn't send HTC an email. The problem as far as I know has been resolved with the updates.

[Q] Problem with Messages after ICS update :(

I've just updated my Evo 3d to the gsm Official ICS update, but i'm experiencing problems
My Messages app won't load. When I click on it, it shows the recent messages screen but theres a notice saying "Please wait" and a loading symbol, and i'm not able to click on any of my messages or compose new ones
I've left it on this screen for half an hour but the "Please Wait" and the loading symbol doesn't go away. It's probably because I have lots of messages stored on the phone, but this didn't seem to be a problem before the update
I tried using the Messages widget, and that works fine, all the messages show up and I am able to click on individual conversations.
I'm just hoping for a solution to the problem because I don't want to have to go through the widget every time to access all of my messages and send new ones. I would appreciate any help :good:
Thank you
If you don't care about your messages just clear your messages data.

thanks for the reply.
I do care about my messages and would prefer not to delete them all, but I guess i could use an app to back them up. The problem is that the option to clear message data is within the message app itself, and since the message app won't load, I can't get to that option

Not completely true .
Yes try to back up your messages with an app . then go into settings.. apps... Select all. Then scroll down until you find messages and you can clear data from there.

Thankyou for the help iTzLOLtrain, i tried that method, although the 'clear data' option was greyed out and I was unable to press it. Instead I downloaded an app that can delete messages, and let it run overnight. Now everything seems to be working

Settings, scroll down to system updates, go to htc software update, and uncheck scheduled check.

Clear data/cache on the Updater app to get rid of the notification if it's still stuck in the tray.

Thanks guys - also used "freeze" in titanium backup which I'm hoping will stop this dead. Does anyone know where the update file is stored (once downloaded)? I've checked /cache and no dice.

Remove udove (HTC tracking), CarrierIQ (system manager, T-Mobile tracking), CarrierIQ Toggle (system manager toggle, tmo tracking settings plugin) from /system/app
As you can see Tell HTC option is gone, and also the T-mobile carrier IQ menu/toggle in settings menu is gone as well.

I think they changed the names on the recent 1.27.531.11 OTA. Udove is there, but not CarrierIQ and CarrierIQ toggle. I think they changed the names.
Care to take a look?
Never mind, found them. They are IQ-TMOBILE AND IQTOGGLE
