hi,
anyone able to get gps lock with telus TP stock rom ? just got my Telus TP and it unable to have it lock. it work fine with my mogul P4000...instant lock with TT 7.94... if anyone able to TT with TP stock rom or 3rd party rom...please give some details.
thanks
im using juggalo rom and i get locks with google maps within seconds.. never really tried to use telus stock rom as i unlocked and switched to a custom rom within an hour. i am sure that telus has it locked out so u can use their navigation software.
belmont, this is the link to the PPCGeeks thread of tobeychris' GPS solution and cab install for Telus.
have you set windows external gps to manage settings automatically?
tomtom gps settings config to built in gps?
"other NMEA" gps works for me as well...
also i've disabled assisted gps and it works fine.
i've ran juicy/or might roms (both built off telus roms) and my gps locks within seconds. should work right out of the box with stock rom though... seeing as how they do have telus navigator pre installed
First of all my respect to all the cooks and tweakers out there who brought us these fine ROMS for our Raph's with the latest and greatest manila stuff on it.
Second, if this is posted in the wrong thread, or if we want to widen the audience, (@mod's) please feel free to move this thread.
However, I feel like this is the right place to start this little thread.
I have been tampering with my device for days now, trying to get the My Location to work as it is supposed to.
With no joy however....I just about tried everything I could find here and on other forums.
It seems like I am not the only one with this problem, I see a lot of posts popping up in different ROM sections (even different devices) with people sharing my frustration.
It seems like it is not ROM relates, as I am on TAEL now, tried Energy and before that SHEP's...all with no go on my location, but all ROMS with lot's of people reporting that it is working fine for them on same ROMS.
After fresh flash, different Radio's and Rilphones...no go...
I am trying to figure out a pattern, but because reports of My Location not working are so dispersed over the forums, it is hard to get a good view.
That's why I want to start this troubleshooting guide here.
Maybe it is an idea for everyone who has troubles to post their provider, their ROM (even though it is not related I think) and their tweaks.
Also radio and Rilphone, as well as info about your gps usage or agps settings.
ALso please post your actual failure (is it the connection error or is it that you get the message No weather data available)
Is it working through wifi or not.... stuff like that.
Any additions or thoughts to this is welcome.
I will reserve a second post for possible fixes and a third post with a possible template for reporting your issues.
I am really impressed by the way XDA members are pulling together at the moment to fix issues, let's keep up the good work
Thanks guys and galls, let's solve this once and for all

On my phone it is not always working , it is the location where I am.
in my home city it is working but a city 20Km (12.43 mile) away it isn't working and the network is the same .
maybe you can test that.
Edit: when I am driving (fast) (180 Km/h and faster) it won't work to.
ps: in Germany you may drive as fast as the car can go
I seem to recall a thread posted a few months back in the Raphael Software and/or Raphael ROM Development by some seasoned chefs (including Da_G).
Essentially, the thread highlighted the fact that some carriers changed the AGPS entry to reference an internal network server. This would cause AGPS to only function if you are a subscriber of the carrier network (ex: AT&T).

Tnx..
However, I don't think this is down to AGPS, as I have AGPS working as should..
If I use HTCGPSTool I can see that data is being injected from AGPS into my gps chip...
Do you have any indication wether my location works purely on AGPS info?

Good question; I'm not sure as to how much My Location depends on AGPS data. If you have it working, I would guess likely not as much as originally suspected.

Thanks for your input though bro..
As a respected member, it's good to have your input....

My actual error is: My Fuze is not shaped like Megan Fox
I own a FUZE
I am using this ROM: TAEL 28002 Manila 2.1
My current Radio version is: 1.14.25.35
My current Rilphone version is: 1.14.25.35
My provider is: AT&T USA
It is working: The phone is, Megan Fox Mod, not so much.
I use AGPS: yes
I use GPS often: yes
I have tweaked my device: tweaked to disable vibration, increase GPS log size. still no luck on Megan Fox
I have been tampering with AGPS registry: not as far as i know.
Using Goolgemaps I get my position from the cell towers without problems: All the time. it pisses me off though, till the GPS kicks in a few seconds later and it shows me what street im on. The weather service also is reliable in fetching weather for my present location.
If anyone figures out the Megan Fox Mod, please let me know.
i suggest not using the 1.17 radio and sticking with the 1.14.25.35. definitely superior imo, and im in MA where ATT blows donkey kong, and i still get fixes really fast. atleast cell tower fixes are instantaneous.
With some of the first NRG roms i tried that had mylocation. My fuze would only pick up on the actual location if i was using wifi or if i turned my 3G off. For some reason, while on EDGE, location worked. Now though, my sim card was screwing up and dropping calls and when I swapped it out for a new one at an ATT store my location works almost 100% of the time on 3G, EDGE, or wifi.
My actual error is: No weather data available (with 3G\HSDPA and 2G\WIFI)
I own a Touch HD (Blackstone)
I am using this ROM: Miri WM 6.5 21885 :: MANILA 2.5 :: REV 15.0
My current Radio version is: 1.10.25.25
My current Rilphone version is: 1.14.25.24 BS Rilphone
My provider is: Zain KSA
It is working: sometime only when connected with GPS
I use AGPS: yes
I use GPS often: no
I have tweaked my device: no initially
I have been tampering with AGPS registry: no
Using Goolgemaps I get my position from the cell towers without problems: Yes, but I don't get it so accurate (within 1300m)
I am thinking it is related to......1) Accuracy of Google location service itself as long as it's still a beta service and it's sometimes inaccurate as in my case for example Google maps would show my location within 1300m from a center point in my city if my phone radio is on, while it would show it within 16100 m from a center point in another city if I turn off my radio and use wifi of my DSL router (my DSL ISP server is in another city which is about 600 km from my actual location). BUT, if I use GPS, my Google maps would show my actual location and HTC weather will get my location and update weather for it.
2) The way HTC manila integrates with google location service
N.B: it would be nice for us to test my theory if everyone writes what my location gives on google maps (acurte point vs. within xxxxxx meters from point)

I just installed CM7 and I really want the HTC radio application. I found a version online on andriod forums and it keeps force closing. Are there any alternative programs that can be used that do not need a connection to the internet like the app by HTC?
.
The problem is that HTC uses proprietary code to make the fm radio hardware to work, so you wont see a CM ROM that has fm radio enabled, except in some devices where coders were able to figure it out, but is just for those devices (Nexus 1 and Desire, if I'm not wrong).
Bottom line, I dont think there'll ever be a FM Radio code in the Aria's ROMs. If you want radio, stick to Sense ROMs.

correct - the CM roms will never have it
there is a FR008 Sense ROM from attn1 - the includes radio

CM7 now has FM radio...
Yeah...it's had fm radio for months... xD
I realize this continues to be asked, but I couldn't find a recent answer. I would like to get rid of Sense and replace with a more vanilla ROM, but need WiFi calling. Right now, I'm running stock rooted 4.4.3 on a TMOUS branded device.
Unfortunately only Sense-based ROMs will have T-Mobile WiFi calling. The older ARHD 31.6 ROM has it, but if you want Sense 6 and the latest 4.4.3 Android, you'll have to look elsewhere. I am running SkyDragon 7.0.1, and there is a newer version of that out (9.0) now. It seems to be pretty solid, although a little slower than stock (for me, at least; I need to update).
Thread is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-sd-4-0-6-07-1540-1-4-4-3-sense-6-t2852898
For those TMOUS customers with crappy signal at home OR at work, you can get a T-Mobile cell-fi signal booster.
http://slickdeals.net/f/7218530-t-mobile-cell-fi-singal-booster-and-asus-router-no-deposit?
You won't find T-Mobile WiFi calling on any vanilla based ROM, and that's because there is specific code programmed into the Sense framework. There are substitutes, however, like Vonage and GrooVeIP, but they are not as integrated as T-Mobile's.
You'll have to go with a Sense based ROM if you want the feature. I highly recommend installing ARHD 81.0 and apply this addon for T-Mobile WiFi calling.
InsertCoin ROMs have always had wifi calling (and it works very well, as it's my daily driver). I see that the new SkyDragon ROM says it supports it also. And deathdeala's flashable zip package will add it onto ARHD.
I've been using skydragon v9 for several days now. The Rom and WiFi calling work good so far.

Hi, all
i am thinking to use my old SX-U as remote control only, (yatse app)
and am wondering if there is any clean good function ROM that doesn't have the GSM radio module in it (GSM radio only eats battery, and yes i know i can disable the GSM with airplane mode).
but i would like to flash the phone with a slim tiny rom, that has only the necessary to function as wifi touch device.
no dialer, no gapps, no gsm, no contacts
any ideas?
