Is anyone else having issues with Awesome Drop? I hadn't used it for a week or so until yesterday. I dragged my file into the browser window and then nothing happened. The file showed up in the Awesome Drop window on my laptop browser, but the transfer didn't occur. I've tried it several times in the interim with no success. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I've tried in both Chrome and FF.
Dumb question but did you make sure to open it on your phone?

Haha. Yes. Each time I also reset the PIN to make sure that wasn't goofing things up. Is the app working for you? If I know the server is routing files for others, then the problem is on my end. If others are having issues, it's likely on Awesome Drop's (Dashwire Labs) end.
It worked for me as of yesterday

Would you mind trying it again with a small file to confirm it's STILL working? This is driving me crazy... I'd appreciate it.
Worked with the ADW2Beta.apk file. It's about 0.58 mb

Arrrrgh. Thanks so much. Now I get to figure out what's corrupted on my end. Sigh.
Try uninstalling and reinstalling?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Yep. I've uninstalled, wiped the Dalvik cache, tried restoring from Ti...no luck. Browsing, Chrome to Phone, texts...they all work without a hitch. For the life of me I don't know what's gone sideways here... It's really frustrating, too, because Awesome Drop is my go-to solution for a lot of file transfers. What browser do you use? Are you stock or using a custom ROM? (I'm on CM7.)
Stock Froyo (2.2.1) rooted. And Chrome on Mac. Are you on the right Wi-Fi? I know it seems like a stupid question but you'd be surprised at how often it's simple things like that
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Ah, I wish it were that simple. I just confirmed that I can send files to a buddy's phone from my laptop...thus, I've managed to tweak something in the dark recesses of my phone. As I've been delaying my plan to flash a nightly version of CM 7, I guess the wait is over! Thanks again for verifying that the app worked.
Do you have a NANDROID from earlier that you could flash to to see if that would fix it? Then try to isolate the.problem in the data entering and leaving the phone

Does anyone know of any apps that may send international text messages to south korea. I noticed a charge on my bill and I started checking to see they went back to october. Sprint says they can't tell what the number is and I have downloaded several permissions apps from the market and the ones setup to send sms don't seem like apps that would be doing this. The charges aren't expensive but not knowing what is in these ghost texts has me worried. Thinking about odin back to stock and starting fresh. Anyone have any suggestions.

you might want to download a virus checker; maybe even odin/heimdall to start from scratch.
sounds like some funky stuff (technical term) got on your phone
Maybe your phone was texting home....isn't that where Samsung is? LOL.

Do u have an antivirus installed? If not, that's recommended. And have thought of trying google voice app?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Have used lookout, avg, and a few others all saying clean. I uninstalled most apps that reported text. Guess its time to odin again. Thanks for your responses. I was hoping someone might have ran into this before but I only found one other instance on the web through a sprint forum.

Use this one...it is fantastic..I use this one. Zoner antivirus. Its completely free...and trust me it works. Lookout is garbage

Used to be able to click on an address in text messages or in any browser and android would open it in MAPS or EARTH or NAVIGATION etc.
I recently installed AOKP milestone 6 for the first time, coming from Caulks 1.6. I'm not sure if it's an AOKP issue or if it's a 4.0.4 issue or what. I do know my buddy just lost this function on his G Nexus when he updated to Jelly Bean. That makes me think it's not a 4.0.4 issue because it worked normally for him on ICS. I definitely haven't taken any OTA updates so even if it was part of the Apple patent bullsh!t how would it be effecting me?
This is really important to me because I use this function multiple times a day.
Also, Maps takes forever to focus when I zoom in on a map. Any ideas on that?
A quick search shows issues with strings.xml not associating correctly, regardless of app.
Did you clear, uninstall and try fresh with one of the apps?

Strings is just a way of using localized data contained to point to more data that it may contain. Its a SQL function, well, to me.
But I do not know if its a root or an app function within Android itself. Someone smarter than me may have that answer.
I'd try clearing cache and data for the particular app, removing, then reinstall. But it may be more severe of an issue if no app will work.
Did you recently flash a ROM?
: edit: Please disregard that obvious dumb question I ask at the end. Its been a long day..

I personally haven't used aokp, and I apologize for asking a question that you clearly answered in your op. Been a long day.
I'd check to see if anyone with your setup can recreate or maybe, possibly, you had a corrupted or failed partial file or a failed write during flash.

Hey, real quick, looking at Google code, looks like it may be linked to dalvik. Did you wipe or use a wipe all?

And to answer your question, I just searched "Android getlocality" which is geocoding. Which will point you to strings, which are generic.. We use it in my line of work. Environmental Engineering.. ( i'm not a tree hugger btw..)

Lol that's ok if you were. I just wondered bc I searched "address" and didn't find a thing related.
Ok just tested and it works in dolphin but not chrome. I just started using Chrome so that must not be a feature. As for sms I guess the it just doesn't work. I'll look into if I have a jelly bean sms app. I bet that's it.

I think you're on to something. There are multiple goecoder issues, random, with jelly bean on the the 'ol search. Multiple fixes if you're looking for a workaround.. NOT promoting a site, but stack overflow shows a few..

And, to beat a dead horse deader, cause you touched on something I actually use, Andriod Chrome is using geocoding.. Odd that it isn't working for you. My maps in ICS have that function but it may still be broken in JB. Reference here.
Hey guys I got my galaxy s iii a few days ago. So far I've just rooted. I'm running tmobile firmware released earlier, not the most current. (Oct 17) and I love the phone but some stuff is seriously confusing me. So apps like Gmail, and Facebook take an incredible amount of time to sync. I'm on wifi ping is 40ms, and my mbits down and up and both around 17 there's no way syncing should take this long. Even on 3g it is faster on my one s. Gmail can take literally 60 seconds to sync with maybe one new email. Facebook could take this long to load with nothing new. Web pages load up quickly. I cannot figure out why this would be if anyone has any idea please let me know. Or if a different rom should fix it that would be awesome I just know it's sad to see this phone failing in such an area.

Did u flash anything at all yet? Or just got the phone and kept it the same.... when I sync the little circle with arrows doesn't move.... but still syncs... it's weird... and that's on stock with root...
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
No I'd have mentioned it. Ha just stock rooted. With custom recovery. And hmm that's interesting but yeah nah this is definitely not syncing either. I have auto sync off but I've had it off for a few phones and never experienced delay like this.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I had a similar issue as well.
Loaded webpages quickly, but things like updating Facebook and Gmail didn't want to sync.
But I am CM10.
You can try going into CWM and clearing cache, dalvik, and fixing permissions.
If that doesn't remedy the problem, try flashing a new modem.

I'm rotating from AOKP, PAC and CM10.1 on the Dinc2 and I love all of them but gif files sometimes work and sometimes don't. It seems like on a fresh flash they work but if I restore a saved nandroid they don't.
I'm not positive it's that way every time but it's driving me nuts. I have searched the internet and seen many with this issue but no resolutions of definite cause. I usually use Boat browser or sometimes Next browser but it's the Tumblr app I really care about.
Do the browser settings affect the Tumblr app? Just wanted to see if someone here had a suggestion?
Thanks
Clear cash n data of tumblr app then recovery clear cash n dalvic. Our phones are old. Things break down.

The new google maps has been FC'ing like crazy on me when I try to use Navigation. It will eventually work after multiple FC's, but it rarely works right off the bat. Anyone else having this problem or is it just me? I'm rooted on tounchwiz.
No problems here just used navigation last night. And have the same set up rooted w/TW.. Not one force close! Might wanna try clearing data in the app, might help your problem!:what:

I've had problems. It doesn't seem to like the back button, or running in the background as its frozen a couple of times I've tried switching over and back from another program. I haven't tried again since the update earlier this week so some of the problems may have been fixed there. I figure with any major update like this, most likely needs time to work the kinks out.
If you can't even get it open, I suggest removing maps and reinstalling from the market, or if you're on a custom ROM, you can try clearing cache and Dalvik a couple of times and "dirty" flashing your current version again. That's fixed a lot of problem in the past. If that doesn't work, clean flashing is a good idea, not to mention half the fun of hanging out here on XDA.

I have the same problem as op. I disabled some of map's processes in autostarts to prevent battery drain a long time ago though, so I guess that may be my problem. (It all worked great with the last version of maps which I preferred.) I'm also still on Cleanrom 4.0.5 so I plan to do a fresh install of 4.9 just in case since I also have issues with my stock browser crashing lately.
