[Q] GPS settings - Performance gains - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732030
I can't find a similar thread for the INC. I've typed in that code and nothing pops up, but it disappears as soon as I enter in the last asterisk, so I know it recognized it.
I'm running SkyRaider 3.5, maybe that's the problem?
I'm trying to edit the SUPL server to supl.google.com since it supposedly provides a quicker lock.
Can you guys try out the code on your phone (maybe it works on other ROM's?) and can someone hopefully help find something (maybe an app) that will be able to change this server in some other way besides this method, since it does not work with this ROM?
Any help appreciated.
Cheers

IM LOST 4 hours of tinkering and still...

First off I have the Sprint Vogue. Ok this morning I decided to update my phones Rom and this that and the other. I found NFSFAN's custom wm6.5 and I am loving it but now I have some issues.
Everything is loaded and partially working. I really like it but somehow and somewhere there are problem. I don't have internet access any longer, it dials out to #777 and then goes away like its connected, but when I went to update my email, weather, and then to try Skyfire.... I get no connection no internet, or something in that nature. So I looked in a few folders to look at some setting and nothing is out of order.
Here is one of my messages that I get when trying update my weather:
Couldn't establish internet interpreter.Connection
Line 1
(Temp\rartmp99.802\titaniumWeather.mscr): connect ("The Internet")
I think I may have the fix for Titanium Weather but I still need more help.
Then I get a window for:
Network Log On
Resourse: Data Connection
User Name:
Password:
Domain:
I looked at this setting in my network connection folder and press the finish button when I was done looking at the information since I couldn't find an exit button.
Another issue is my MSID is set to all zeros to the best of my knowledge is should be the same as my current phone number. I have tried ## this # that and I always dial out and an operator comes on saying the number or code entered is invalid.
Am I over thinking this or how do I fix this. I am getting frustrated with the searching and digging and not getting anywhere, can someone please help me with this?
also does it matter that my phone use to say it was the VOGU 100 and now it says its the VOGU 200
Are you with Sprint?
There is a ton of info in NFSFAN's thread regarding getting Sprint back on the internet, just search.
Thanks for that, I did use the search on this upgrading forum and couldnt find what I needed..... Thanks juddy, after a few minutes I found my answer and it all works now. All that was needed to be done was to revert to his/there 6.3, make sure that it all works and then revert back to 6.5. I am getting on the internet, weather is updating, emails are syncing onto my phone. So far so good only time will tell on how well it works. Thanks

[Q] Howto dial L2TP/IPSEC or PPTP VPN via CLI?

Hello,
I have finally got L2TP/IPSEC VPN working on my HTC Desire. My phone is rooted using unrevoked method.
Now the question I have is a simple one. I am trying to automate this so that its on all the time if there is a wifi or 3G signal present.
Inside the standard app it doesnt offer any save password features so I was going to make a script to dial and keep the connection up.
Now the problem I have is ive looked high and low for answers or hints/clues on how you go about doing this but its come up blank. I was hopping someone had a clue on how you do this?
I also have an OpenVPN setup and I can keep this up as the applcation has support for this but the issue is I get teriable performnce compared to my kernel based linux PPTP server. I do hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance,
Majestic

[Q] New ROM Issue Help Requested

I've been reading myself silly trying to figure this out & my attempts at Searching haven't helped, probably because I'm not fluent enough to use the correct terms. In spite of having this device for several months, I've never learned as much as I'd like. Anyway . . .
I finally flashed the newest stock ROM from HTC several days ago. The process seemed to go fine with one exception: I keep getting a notification that I have a new Voicemail when I don't. I check -- no new Voicemail. I Dismiss, but the the notification keeps coming back periodically. Suggestions?
Other than that, things seemed to go smoothly, and I started slowly getting things back the way I like them. After reading & making sure I understood (or so I thought), I installed the .NET 3.5 Framework so I could use Crud Scraper to get rid of the stuff I clearly remembered using it for.
The .NET part went fine, and then I did the soft reset . . . and lost My Location on the Today screen that shows my weather. It now says I'm in Seattle, which I'm not -- I'm over a mountain range & about 350 miles east of Seattle. When I try to change the location, it doesn't find my town or anything in my area, for that matter..
The mysteriously (to me) reappearing Voicemail Notification is bad enough, but I really rely on the weather, particularly this time of year, and it's driving me crazy that I can't figure this out. Suggestions?
TIA
Did you try looking at the several threads on this ROM in the Rom Development forum? There's a fix in one of them for this problem.
For which problem? And, do you have any idea what thread?
And, yes, I did look in the thread I found (New ATT Tilt2 ROM) -- I believe I read every post before I flashed the latest ROM, even though much of it was over my head. That's where I learned that I had to install .NET 3.5 & reboot before CrudScraper would work.
I recall several people mentioning that the My Location worked flawlessly & how great it was having the location, and I read where one or two people seemed to be having the same weather problem I'm having, but I didn't see an answer. I read in one of the forums that there seems to be a bug (although not confined to the latest ROM) in certain parts of the world, and I read a thread where there seemed to by a problem with My Location in a cooked ROM that might or might not have been related to GPS not working. I read something else where My Location wouldn't work with 3G, only with Wi-Fi, so I tried that, even though My Location was working just fine after I flashed to the latest ROM -- that didn't help.
So, it's not like I'm asking because I hadn't already tried to find solutions myself. I'm not doubting that there are answers to both of my issues but rather that after spending several hours over the weekend trying to find the solutions, I've been miserably unsuccessful. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked.

For the My Location feature, only part of the service is understood. For the most part, the location is determined by the cell towers your device connects to. It depends on where you are as well as the signal strength. Sometimes the request is not sent or received to/from the tower(s). It is more accurate usually when 3G is turned off. The alternative is to add your city manually. If the location servers can't figure out where you are, then it won't work.
Normally the stock ROMs fix this and work wonderfully after flashing. The best solution to this is to turn off 3G to get a fix or find your city manually.

I'm feeling really stupid here, but being a glutton for punishment, I'll keep trying.
Is it possible that maybe there was something wrong with the towers here that just happened to coincide with the soft reboot after installing .NET? The reason I ask is that My Location is now correct. Yay! That would be just my luck: bad timing.
Any suggestions about the incorrect Voice Mail notification? It for sure comes back each time I power up the phone. It seems to me it also reappears at other times, but I'm not positive about that -- I'm going to try to pay better attention.

Make sure to install .NET CF 3.5 to the device and not the storage card. You'll then need to restart, if it doesn't ask you to do so. You then need to force it to use 3.5 over 2.0. Use a registry editor and navigate to HKLM/Software/Microsoft/.NETCompactFramework. Change the DWORD data of entry 2.0.7045.00 from 1 to 0. Then change the DWORD data of entry 3.5.7283.00 from 0 to 1 and then reset. This disables 2.0 and enables 3.5.
For a decent registry editor that can be used from the PC side, check out CERegEditor if you don't already have an editor of choice.
For the voicemail problem, there are two known solutions. You can either have someone call and leave you a voicemail. You would then check it and delete it. You can also simply call your provider and have them reset your voicemail account. Either one should work.
If neither of those options works for/appeals to you, you can give this a shot. There are no guarantees that it won't come back after a soft reset, though. Using a Registry editor, navigate to the following keys:
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line1\Unread
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line2\Unread
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Total\Unread
There should be a value name "Count" with a REG_DWORD value
Change value to 0 in decimal or 00 in Hex.
It should remove voicemail notification icon from the taskbar.

Many thanks! For the Voicemail, I used method one, and it worked
And, thanks for the instructions (and the reg edit program suggestion) to force use of .NET CF 3.5 because I missed that part -- yikes.
I'm on a dedicated mission to cut down on the elecronics I have to carry around, so I need to learn more about the features of the Tilt2 because if I can just figure things out (which I've not forced myself to do), the Tilt2 will, I think, be able to replace my PDA & iPhone.
Anyway, thanks again for your help!

[Q] Internet keeps hanging even with full 3g signal (Three UK)???

OK, Firstly, does anyone else have the Defy on the Three network and is it working alright for you??
I'm just trying to figure out whether this is a phone problem or a network issue. Basically I'll unlock the phone, go onto google, search for something and that's when the wait starts, it's really weird, I'll have full 3G signal, and neither of the little traffic arrows will do anything, which makes me think it's not a network issue. Absolutely all network traffic locks up, including gmail, market etc
But then if I make a phone call and hang up it will start working again fine. All I can think is that it's just a little software glitch in my phone. Does anyone know if Motorola will send me a ROM update/repair tool for the phone because I'm guessing it's something to do with that, or even try rolling back to Eclair 2.1 to try that. And yes, before you ask, I've tried many times doing a full wipe/factory reset and it makes no difference.
I've quadruple checked all my APN settings for Three which don't even have usernames or passwords and even checked the settings were correct in the secret service menu. Also when I had the problems I ran a ping test (in the secret menu *#*#4636#*#*) and they all returned "failed could not find ip"
It's just so weird how random it is, I can't work it out. Maybe the defy really isn't compatible with three.
If anyone's got any ideas please please please leave info below.
One other thing I forgot to mention is that the defy was previously locked to Tmobile(uk) and was unlocked using a simple unlock code, no hacking or modding involved
Hi mate,
I've been using my defy on 3 UK with no problems since Jan. I've been on eclair the whole time. Currently the 2.51 stock.

[Q] How to connect to hidden WiFi?

Hello xda community!
I have a strange and serious problem: I can't connect to hidden WiFi's.
I'm with a LG G3 D855 10H (no newer versions available).
At work we use a hidden WiFi without password but with Juniper VPN.
When I type in the network name and save it, it tries one time to connect, then my LG G3 shows "not in range". After a few seconds, the WiFi is on the top again with a very good signal.
When I try to connect again, it shows "not in range" again and so on.
I tried it at home and created a hidden network and it was reproducible.
Anyone else has problem with this?
Many thanks in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Jake

Now that is what you call a 'special' post!
Would you care to explain how it was resolved for the people that have the problem.
My problem still exists, but isn't urgent anymore.
I found out, Android itself have problems (or restrictions?) to hidden WiFi networks.
I also found an app names HiddenSSID Enabler, but it seems it didn't work for me (or G3?).
If someone has a solution it still would be very helpful fo rme and the rest of the community.

I have logs posted in my first post, WIFI DESTROYED TWICE or there abouts.
I've had to resort to DATA and its killing me haha i think i am getting close to fixing it, well i think i may be closer than you two and can one of you kindly take the lead as im reinstalling windows and i haven't gamed in 6 days :|
/system/etc/wifi/WCNSS_qcomcfg.ini
then the problem is complex but i am sure it is something to do with gEnableApProt=1
Offshoot fix, reinstall using googled imei number that doesn't have a flag or some how fix the flag <READ A FEW DAYS BACK>
I think actually the program that stuffed me was Airmon by maxters. It asked me if i was pro and of course, i said yes. Who would simply click no? I know a ninj wouldn't click no. I think there is a manual reinstall to link to it again i find the modem in its own partition having a chill, most likely trojan/backdoor and pwning everything around me.. I had three encrypted vpn backdoors and escalated accounts on my computer I paid the 5$ for the binarys, i think i paid 5$ for the back doors.
Not to sell Airmon out though.. Rooting our phones and accessing countless forums and websites really does leave us rather "xposed" some other cuplrits may be dsploit, ROM manager, linux Deploy/kali, Pamn IP scanner, system app remover pro, busybox pro's (Stephen/JRummy) or CMinstall/accessing the forums and trying to install cynagenmod / twrp recovery. I'm probably going to go with..... Airmon/Linuxdeploy or uninstalltool. But may have just been my IP logged and i hit a booby trap script along the way.
You guys done anything of the sort?
/Thread killller
Neither I understand what you are talking about, nor am I (as not native english speaker) good at "sentence guessing".
I have a rooted phone - of course.
But I'm pretty sure my WiFi is not destroyed...
