Okay, before, you will flame me for not reading the thread please here me out.
I just upgraded my 6800, so now, I have GPS, and 6.1.
The GPS works great with Google maps and live search.
I guidance is very choppy. I read through the thread about using Astrolauncher. I have no problem making the shortcuts.
My problem is widths changing the output ports. I.e. redirecting com 4 to com 2.
GPS gate costs $40, I am getting errors when I install GPSproxy.
What step am I missing?
If somebody is going to attack me for asking this question, instead of telling me to read through the forum, please direct me to the specific thread and posting. A download Link would also be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, all for your help, I couldn't have gotten this far without, you all.

Iguidance didn't run very smooth for me either so I switched to tomtom 6 and never looked back, runs perfectly smooth and recalculates instantly.

I had the same problem when I first started using iGuidance. I purchased GPSGate, which is only $19.95 for the Pocket PC, not $40, and launch it using astrolauncher and a startup MortScript script. It has been working great ever since.
Hi Folks,
I have decided to post this fix as a separated thread because the gigglebread thread is growing incredibly fast and the reference to it gets lost in one or two days after being published.
When GB was at v5, I wrote this post on its thread, to offer to the community a fix that I've created to my device, because I realized that my pain could be the pain of others.
Well, that fix does not works on v8, it puts the system in a infinite boot loop. Therefore I rolled up my sleeves again to update it. And here it comes the updated version. Enjoy while it's hot.
Best Regards,
Ed.
could you please tell us what this fixes and is installation via custom zip option in xecovery?
Thanks in advance.
Hi, I'm sorry for this. The explanation was on the post linked in the previous message... Here's the Quote of that post:

Hi Folks,
I've been following this particular thread since its first day (coincidentally the same day that I started using an Android phone).
The main motivation for using this rom was that to be able to replicate my corporate e-mail and calendar. In order to do that, I would have to be, at least, using Android 2.2, because the company that I work for restricts access to earlier versions because the changes on the lock screen password options that took place on v2.2.
Despite of a few minor remaining bugs, this ROM works pretty well on my device. But, there is an issue that was really pissing me off: The inability of sending DTMF tones using the digits 0*#, because of the layout of the screen. Since I have to join several conference calls per week, that is a huge show-stopper for me. Well, I'm pretty sure that the creator of this ROM is quite busy working on some serious issues (like bluetooth) and do not has the time to take a look into these cosmetic issues, that's why I decided to roll up my sleeves and work on this.
I finally went thru this, and I decided to share this fix on the forum, since I read a lot of people talking about this issue as well. Attached to this post is an update zip file, which will tweak the position of the component of those screens, in order to allow the full visualization of both dialpads (in-call & initial).
To install the fix, just copy it to your sdcard and install it via xRecovery. Please take into account that this comes with no warranty at all, is provided *AS IS*, and I don't want to be responsible should anyone damage a device, loose data, etc, trying to install this package. I only tested it on my phone (where it worked like a charm) therefore I can't guarantee that it will work on other setups as well.
If you like this fix, please click on "Thanks" and feel free to send some bucks to finance some Duvels, Karmeliets or Guiness
EDIT: I've just added a tweak to the "Rotary Selector" to keep it from being in front of the "Calling Card" when an incoming call is received. Therefore now there's 3 zip attached to this post: One that has the 2 fixes and another one for each fix. You can figure out which is which by their names, which are pretty straight forward.
Best Regards,
Ed.

or that But I suppose that it would need some rewriting, as the old fix (released for v5) didn't work with v8... And it's just a cosmetic fix As far as I know Owains highest prioritys with this rom are FM and some bugfixes on apps not working...
Works Perfectly
Works like a charm!
Thx for this fix!

i have garmin asus nivifone a50
and there is a problem
after doing master reset, it shown :
please close the the battery cover, and restart the device to complete first-time setup
whether i have closed the battery cover
and also i have try to tap the restart but it still shown like that
how could i solve this problem?
regards
can anyone help me?
i'm really frustrated with this thing
help
someone help me please...
Better too late than never..
Hi all,
stumbled upon this problem as well on friday. Let me guess: Bluetooth has been not possible to activate?
It's a side-effect of having busybox installed before doing a master reset, some links are messed up..
Here's the solution for this problem:
I shall not post Hyperlinks as new member, so do a google request: revive+your+garmin+asus+a10
One will find two tutorials (one from Kazzi, one from Marco in the comments).
It worked for me; I imagine it might come in handy for one or another.
Hi, it seems search bar is locked in place on this device (Android 9 Pie). There is no obvious option to disable it.
It is the issue for a while already http://forum.cubot.net/viewtopic.php?t=1160
Did anyone find a solution how to remove it from the Home screen?
Thanks

I recommend just installing a third party launcher instead. I too found no easy way to remove it.
it's a fixed position widget starting from Android 8
sadly the only way to remove it is third party launcher ...
I had this problem too. Like said above, the problem is solved immediatly with a third launcher. I've taken Nova Launcher and it works perfectly.
Otherwise, if you don't want to install another launcher, you can try this method : https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
For a complete lists of your package, you can use the app : "App Inspector" on the playstore.
I did this for all google app. For the search bar, it didn't work fully but it was better than without this tip. I read that, for some people, it worked fully.
Hope you will succeed to remove it!

Happy that it worked for you too!
There is no special topic about this phone, does it work well for you?
I have it since last october ,it works pretty good! I would like to root it but I don't find a safe way to do it. I found some tip on german or russian forum but I don't speak those langages and the google trad is very approximative...
Do you find something to root it safely? ANd does this phone great for you?

I saw some guides but I didnt try to root this phone because I dont have a need for it, especially since the phone is already stock Android 9 where you can simply use adblocking DNS from within the Network settings.
Im generally satisfied with it, but proximity and finger sensors tend to misbehave sometimes, maybe its too sensitive to dust or dirt, I dont know.
My phone has V11 firmware, no updates available through the update manager, but there should be V13 available.

yeah it's true that you can replace a lot of root's features with third app's with this phone but it will be cool for me to have full access for more fun! Like totaly uninstall some apps useless for me, more customisation etc etc...
But it's really cool like it is now!
With mine : I don't have trouble witj proximity sensors but fingers sensors react weirdly, indeed. I think your hypothesis is the answer : it's too sensitive to dust and dirt.
The light sensor is a little bit weird too, but I think it's due to an android feature : user'shabits learning. Weird at the beginning, but works good after.
In my case, I have the V13 firmware (install directly via Cubot's website). I don't think it will be more update later...
One question : Do you know if this phone works well in USA? I see that it has some US's band so I think so , but I would like a confirmation
I received message from Cubot support that there are no significant or important changes in V13, so I'll leave it at that.
I also noticed phones behavior and sensitivity of sensors has changed over time, maybe it's that habit learning you mentioned..
I'm in Europe, so I can't say if it works in US. Shouldn't be too hard to find out.
I'm generally satisfied with this phone, as I tend to drop it a lot (relatively speaking) and it holds together well, and the software support+performance is satisfactory as well.
@urpi_ > Thanks for the feedback Happy to share with a Quest's owner, there aren't many
Like you, I've dropped it sometimes and the shakeproof it's real! I haven't test yet the waterproof. I will do it this summer
In very good points, I found GPS, Wifi and bluetooth respond very quick and well!
For the GPS, even in a remote location, the Quest fixes very quick
And the blutooth works very well with my earplug, even in running.
For the price, it's a very good smartphone, I'm happy with it too
Since when do you have this phone? I have it for 5 months nearly.

That's one of the reasons I would like to root it. Like you, this functionnality annoys me, although this button is very usefull . It's too bad that we can't configure it like we want and with a root, it would be possible.
For now on, I don't find a tip for changing this long press function. Maybe someone will read this thread and will have an solution
If I found something , I will share it here

Yeah, I have used Key Mapper ( https://github.com/sds100/KeyMapper ) to change normal press (no root required) but I haven't found a way how change long-press behavior. Perhaps it's possible with Key Mapper too, and I just didnt find it?? Maybe.
@urpi_ > Thank you for the share, I will try it and search too if we can do something for long press configuration!
But for the normal press, you can already choose any application in settings. So, what does keymapper moreover?
Otherwise, about the fingerprint sensor:
I re-saved my fingerprints but differently :
Without perfectly clean up the sensor, like "out in the pocket" 's mode ( ) and with the "soft" part of the finger.
Before I saved it with the very extremity of the finger. This time, I used this "soft" part (a little bit under the top extremity of the finger) and with the finger kept flat.
It works pretty better now! Maybe it could make it work better for you too
Im pretty satisfied with the fingerprint sensor now, but yeah it can be probably fine-tuned to work better with this phone, like you said.
You can choose any application for normal (side-key) press, but I wanted to map it to something other than applications.
I used KeyMapper to make it a Pause/Play key for media.

So I tried this app and I think I found for the long press mode.
When you are on the window for creating a new macro, clik on "more" and then choose "long press"
After,you click on "record trigger" and push the button you want to configure, then choose the action you want.
I tried for launching an app, it worked well
But I tried for togglethe torch and it crashed the app. ANd then, the app didn't work at all, I had to reinstalled it
Hope it will help you
By the way, can you tell me what does "Data protection" setting do exactly? I see it under Security & location - Advanced menu.
I know it asks for a security entry pattern, but what for? Phone is supposed to be encrypted by default.
Yeah good question! I wonder too and I never enter a pattern for this. I think it is an android protection by default, but there are another protection too. By the way, I think there is too much protection
Other subject : I had a security upate nearly by september, I found the fingerprint and thbe camera respond much better. DO you feel that way too?

No update available for my phone. Still at February security update from 2019.
Strange, maybe you should visit the official website? If you do this, be careful : I've done the update via this way because the direct OTA way didn"t work. If the OTA's way is just an update; via the official website, it's a total reset, so, backup before doing this way
