Switchpro & GB compatibility issues post update - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Guys...seriously...what is going on with GB?
Even after the update that supposedly fixed the 3g toggle issues with switchpro it's still not working...at least for me.
Also any clue when the GPS toggle will be fixed?
Or better yet...does anyone reccomend another app that does the same thing ad switchpro but actually works with GB?

i think its you i have no issues with switchpro

Well I know there was some compatibility issues with switchpro and gingerbread and the update switchpro update yesterday (I think) was supposed to fix that. My 3g toggle still isn't working the way it did with froyo unfortunately.
EDIT: just in case anyone else was having this problem I uninstalled, rebooted twice, reinstalled...and now my 3g toggle is working again.

Juice Defender issues with CM7?

Are there any known issues with JD not being able to toggle mobile data when using CM7?
I switched to AOSP not long ago from Sense and never had a problem with JD until CM7. Ita unable to control mobile data and WiFi will not stay connected (although I believe that in itself is a known CM7 issue IIRC)
THANKS!

I remember having similar issues with CM7 and Juice Defender. Have you tried Green Power as an alternative? Not exactly sure what could be causing the toggle issue though...
Sorry if I wasnt much help
You're probably have to use a different task killer, ect because all apps [fairly sure juice defender is one, seen other problems] aren't compatible with gingerbread yet.

[Q] Is there a way to toggle 3G?

I have extended controls and i've tried several others like it but nothing seems to have a toggle to turn 3G off. 2G/3G toggles don't work and neither does turning off mobile data (APN), I guess that's for GSM networks.
At work i get really poor reception and I'd like to be able to toggle 3G off (turn data off) to save battery.
Thanks ahead of time!
Are you rooted?

Yes i'm rooted, running starburst 1.6
Not sure if this is the one that you already have but turning off data works perfect for me in 1.6.

Here is my solution with launcher pro. You can do an activity shortcut with AnyCut and test the Various DATAs for the one that allows for the selection of Hybrid/CDMA/EVDO. Launcher pro is a little more detailed in it's selection process.

I currently use Widgetsoid which can control many things but if you want just a 3G on/off toggle, I know that Data Switch does work with our phones, I've used it before.

CM7 issues. (Dolphin browser, 4G, in-call sound)

So I believe I've had this issue everytime I fashed any kind of CM7 to my phone. The backup of my dolphin browser never actually restores correctly. All my other apps restore their data perfecty and work fine. But dolphin browser always just restores the app but I can never get my data back on it, so I lose all my bookmarks and saved emails and stuff which is annoying and sometimes I forget some of my passwords lol. But has anyone else had this problem? Even when I backup my bookmarks from the app itself and restore them it never gets me them back.
And the problem I'm having with 4G is it never connects or shows up. I know I need to have 3G on first, and I do, but when I turn 4G on it says "turning on" then "unknown" and it never even shows in my status bar as scanning or anything.
Also, the in-call speaker sound stays on the loudest even when lowerng it to the end. Its like that with regular talking on the phone and head phones, and no, its not from voodoo control. But is there anyway to fix this?

Tb. I always use it and it works perfectly on every other ROM I flash. Its just cm7 I'm having problems with. And no the backup isn't corrupted or anything. I'm thinking maybe it could be because dolphin runs differently on cm7?? Or has some kind of different data?

I can't imagine that the data would be stored in a different location. But you even said dolphin's own back and restore doesn't work on cm7? I would say that is a dolphin issue not a cm7 issue contact their support.

Ya that's what I'm thinking. Maybe it runs in a different way or something.
But anyway, that's not the biggest problem I'm having. I don't mind that as much as any of the other two issues.
4G, for some reason, just isn't working for me. Can anyone confirm that it actually works so I can see where the problem is from?
Also, the in-call speaker sound stays on the loudest even when lowerng it to the end. Its like that with regular talking on the phone and head phones, and no, its not from voodoo control. But is there anyway to fix this?

Not sure about the in call volume I can't test 4g seeing I don't have 4g where I live. Which version of CM7 you on? 7.2 RC2 is the latest version.

4g is working for me on cm7... or it was 2 days ago... not on cm7 right now so can't test... maybe they are working on towers in your area... they are starting deployment of lte and it has been giving their network some problems from what I've read... I know there was a big outage last week in texas because of this... maybe its that...

Maybe, or maybe not. Ill restore my backup of thunderhawk and test 4G to see if its from the ROM or the network. And I seen another tread talking about the in call sound to always being too loud so I guess that's a ROM based bug but not a big problem.

4g will not work with app store

Is anyone having this issue too? If my 4g is on, i can surf the Web, but now it won't update apps or download them. It stuck on waiting for network, but when i switch to 3g, download starts right away...4g not working for downloading or updating apps.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
It's been posted before in other portions of the thread. Nothing I can do besides the temp fix. Go to setting-manage apps- the find the play market and clear the cache then uninstall the update. You will have to do that every time you re enter the market under 4g
let me guess you are on a GB build possibly with a ICS modem? if so then you need to choose either one or the other. i was having the same problem recently and thats how i fixed it.

But I have no idea why.

It seems 4g falls asleep on the job sometimes and hits the snooze button on the alarm clock.

It goes back to the default settings if you flash roms correctly, just so you know.

Just recently started having this problem. Google Play was recently updated, so I dont think it was our phones or Sprint causing the problem.

Yes your correct there is no real fix until they update the market again. or if you flash a ROM with a new Ics market then it should work fine.
Install the ics ota update from stock recovery 4g downloads on the play store now works

The GPS issue has been "fixed". Most people's A-GPS got updated and they're getting locks again.

I have, speedtest.net isn't working.... but maps seems to lock on.... not quite sure what's going on.... maybe it's the speedtest app??? idk...
edit: just tried speedtest.net on my i..... err.... "other" phone.... and speedtest.net isn't finding a location server either.... so it's not my nexus.... maybe the GPS is working after all...
The "fix" does nothing for me and I've tried GPS test GPS status and faster fix. Have reset the a GPS setting and still nothing. The GPS icon doesn't flash or fill in it just stays empty until after about 30 seconds then tells me unable to get a location

Google fixed A-GPS data that they were serving phones. People are now reporting that they're able to get locks again. Mine's been a bit shaky still, but I do lock eventually.
Try another rom. I was using cm10 alpha and was starting to blame my gnex. But then I tried jelly bean stock, liquid ics, and some other rom. And GPS started to work like a champ. Instant GPS lock. And while I was on edge too! Try another rom.

i cant get NAVIGATION app to lock at all -- on the OTA deodexed JB rom from the forums -- did full data wipe re-install still cant get a lock
Try liquid ics. I'm using he GSM nexus with T-mobile. This would help determine if its a software issue or hardware. Yesterday I put liquid ics and stock jb.to the test by driving around my city and they both locked on and responded very fast.

Last week, some bad A-GPS data got pushed out to Nexus devices, and people were unable to get a GPS lock for several days.
I had no issues when everyone was reporting GPS issues but today my GNex took at least 3-4 minutes to lock onto GPS. I'm not confident it isn't ROM issue, I'd have to run some other tests to isolate it, but there is definitely something weird going on with GNex's GPS.
