Can someone help with TeleNav issues? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello all,
I have been using TeleNav on my EVO 4G for a long time, and on BlackBerry previous to that, from Sprint. When I switched to ATT, I installed TeleNav from the market and it worked a treat.
Today, when I was going to use it, it's asking me if I want to purchase premium or day-service (9.00 or 2.99) and upon hitting cancel, it simply kicks out.
Apparently, the newer version has that bug. does someone have an OLDER version of this APK> I was dumb enough not to make a backup with Titanium...
Thanks.
BTW< Google Maps will not work properly in Puerto Rico, and that's where I am at, so that's out of the question.

FYI, I actually reverted to a nandroid that had it running and I have it back... but for new TeleNav installs, for some reason, it will ask you to buy or cancel.
I posted on their forums and am awaiting their response.

Best Buy updated my phone, can i root?

ok, so while best buy was activating my phone (which took a litle shy of 3 hours) , they updated the firmware or the software (whatever it is that was updating at the time). when i had a touch pro 2 i rellied heavily on xda-wifi program to provide internet to my laptop. am i screwed now that best buy updated my phone? how can i get my phone to provide wifi to my laptop? i am in the dark, and even tho i love the evo's speed it still does not compare to a laptop and what it can do. Please help. i feel like if i am in the dark ages without wifi hotspot.
Like the hero when it first came out, wifi tethering in it's classic form doesn't work yet. HOWEVER: Go enable your sprint hotspot app...I believe I heard that haven't locked it down yet so even though you're not paying for the service, it should work in a pinch.
I seen i lot of this going on at best buy while i was waiting in line. They didnt get to mine though.
hmm ill try it, im guessing using the sprint hotspot "free" until they fix it will be uncapped huh?
but now that they updated me, am i going to be able to root? i saw a few post that people were able to get wifitethering after root but it was kinda of tricky.
i, for one dont mind the sprint tv, navigation and other sprint stuff. i actually enjoy using them (i mean im paying for em right?). but i would like a program like xda-wifi (the one i had on my tp2) where all i had to do was run the cab and it installed the program.
is there anything out there now where i can use the wifitethering abilities of the phone while keeping my rom "LIKE" stock with all programs that came out the box?

when i go to sprint hotspot and check the sprint mobile hotspot it gives me "error code 67. Registration failure. your pcs vision username and/or password may be incorrect. please try again"
The (temporary) free hotspot only works on 4G.
ah, that would make sense...seeing as how im in boston and 4g not getting here till 4th quarter 2010...this is insane...what do i do now in order to provide my laptop with internet from my phone? if someone could help me with the root or something. but my phone is updated, can i even do it now?

I don't live in a 4G area. Last night I was able to tether my HERO, my iTouch (I know), my wife's PRE, and my laptop. But today, I get the "error code 67". Darn it!
You can root ur phone after the OTA if you go to http://unrevoked.com/m from your phone browser and download the .apk, then run it... seemed to work pretty good for me at least it appears I'm rooted now (I couldn't get wifi tether to work tho)
On a side note...anyone else use this method or know if this is safe and/or from a trusted source? I usually stick to XDA for mod stuff, I just happened to run across this, this morning someone on Twitter posted it
EDIT: I see the other thread, nvm

the only reason i would root is to get access to get access to wifi tether, otherwise i have no reason to root (im not into removing apps and stuff).
what other threat did you see that had to do with my issue?
the updates started the moment she activated my phone. saw the word 'firmware' and yelled "NO!", reached over her shoulder and hit cancel.
Hope so because my friend was testing my phone and when he gave it back it was doing the update. He told me there was an update available, but he made it seem like it was an update in the market place! Now qik force closes overtime I open it.

[Q] Error 1012 no matter what Sprint or I do

For the past week and 1/2 i get error 1012 if i do a profile or prl update. I play with my radios in different area to test. So i always follow up with a profile update. So then i have to call sprint, have them refresh my phone and then it works for a short period of time. If i do a profile restore it never activates and have to call sprint.
Running synergy rc1 hw 0002
Lastest radios were flashed in fastboot and have worked before.
When i called sprint they gave me a credit if i was to go to the store and it be free of charge and id get a new phone. But i dont want to end up with 2.3 and loose root.
Also she said it no longer matter if your phone is rooted. You can bring it for service.

Did you use clockwork mod? This guy had a similar prob.
I am having this issue as well, I posted in the forum in that link.
This is odd. We can make calls on the phone, internet, text, can not update PRL, profile and it will not receive picture texts. I messed up and DID NOT make a backup of the stock ROM, as I put a new 16g SD card in it. So I dont know if I can go back to the Stock rom or not and try it all again.
I really dont want to go to Sprint and then be given a new 2.3.3 phone.
Thanks to all that have any ideas.
I have another EVO and did the same thing to it, and it works perfectly.
I had this problem, too. The only thing that fixed it for me was a full wipe using ##786#. You will need the MSL code to do this. If you don't have it and you are rooted, you can get MSL reader from the market. If you are not rooted, then you need to call Sprint and sweet talk them into giving it to you. Back up all your apps/user date with Titanium (or whatever you use) before attempting this because it WILL wipe everything from your phone.
i use amon recovery. wiped my whole phone and reinstalled the rom, even flashed others with no go. Downgraded radio = nothing, upgraded again = nothing
I have had lots of problems getting my Data to work on my EVO running on the Boost Mobile Network(A.K.A. Sprint). Still continue not to have Data on it. I assumed it was PRL Version, but was incorrect. Well, I would get the same Error Code. I managed to update PRL manually using the link below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898628
Still NO DATA on my HTC EVO 4G!
Still get calls & text messages, but no internet!
I got a refurb phone a couple days ago, and they were having provisioning problems then when trying to update it at store. Perhaps it's still occurring?
UPDATE:
I took it to the store yesterday. When I went to go pick it up i noticed a scuff mark on the bottom left along with the screen lifting. Went back today to get my refurb only for this one have the whole bottom lift and fiber in the rear camera and the lense. Back to the store I go and hopefully I get a new one.
UPDATE: given another refurb. This one is perfect, no issues. no more errors. also its hardware version 0002. Weird. The other was 0004. So about $37 at the store. when i called sprint I received a $50 credit along with the $37 I spent on the phone. New phone plus credit = a happy customer.

I have been working on my HTC EVO phone for several days trying to get my number transferred and the phone activated. I have done a factory reset called customer service, tried rooting it, everything. I got the MSL code from the previous service providers, luckily, and reset the meid imsi and everything. Finally I came across this post and it was a life saver. You providing the ##786# was what i needed to totally clear everything. It is finally activated. Thank you so much it worked!!

Verizon NFL Mobile FINALLY WORKS ON NEXUS!!!!!!!

The NFL mobile app finally works on the Nexus this morning. It was updated yesterday but did not work. Tried it this morning and it works. Yesterday when the app was updated on ICS, it said it was supposed to work and it didn't. I went as far as removing the app and clearing the cache and data on the Verizon login app in settings/apps/all/verizon login and still nothing. Today I tried it just for Sh%$ and giggles and it works. YAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!. Cant wait to watch my team get eliminated in the first round.
PS. I'm a Bronco fan Don't bash me because of Tebow, Ive been a fan since the late '80s when I was in Jr. High. Just gave away my age somewhat. Close to being an old fart
It's working here too. I figured last night, when it didn't work, that there was some kind of device type validation done on the server. Probably as a result of all of the cracking work done here. heh. The app update was probably just bug fixes for 4.0.x. It probably would have worked before if they had added the GN to their whitelist, the app just might have been crashy.
I tired yesterday as well, with no success.
Maybe now it will work too.
Go Niners.
Just in time for the Titans season to be over.
Guess I'll pull for the Broncos too.
Anyone get it working on a custom ROM. I am running Gummynex and i cannot get it to work, says its for vzw customers. I am guessing there needs to be a change somewhere in the build.prop?

It's not working for me, getting a "For VZW Customers only" and I have Verizon Login installed. Thinking it's something up with the rom... Axi0m 2.3.
Install the Verizon login service first and you should be good. Installing my Verizon login service is like installing your key to all the Verizon applications including my Verizon.
I had a problem installing my Verizon app and once I installed my Verizon login service everything was good. But in order to make it work I had to first log in not using Wi-Fi

It's free if you are on any 4G phone. You only have to pay for it if you use that Vcast crap. A verizon rep at the store let me know about this when I got my Nexus. I dropped the Vcast crap and Verizon video. Enjoying the NFL app for free. Again, you have to have a 4G phone. Its in a promotional poster at the different Verzion stores I've been to in the last month or so. (Eau Claire, WI, Chicago, IL, Denver,CO and Cheyenne, WY). Hope this helps.

Supplying the apk for non-Verizon users would not be allowed on XDA.
Verizon has the rights to that and distributing to other providers would be considered as a stolen app.

Already did.
It's been confirmed to be an issue with the ROM I'm on, dev said he fixed it for the next release.
For those of you that have the app working, are you on custom rom's and if so, which ones. I am running Axiom 2.3 and it is not working. Says I have to be a Verizon customer.

Play Store "No connection" problem

Every so often when I run the Play Store it says "No connection". And as many times as I push the Retry button it says the same thing. Even if I force close the app
I kinda just have to wait a bit and it starts working again. I never lose network connection though. I'm betting its not actually an issue with Google's servers so I'm wondering if its an issue with my phone or setup

Just had this happen. On insert coin 5.5.0 and bricked 1.1
Not working here either.. stock ROM with root and speedmod kernel. Even Gmail app is not working..
Anyone has a solution yet?
What worked for me but still no explanation
I'm a lousy member on this Forum, 2 years or so and my first post
I had 2 Nexus Ones and both of them took a swim (literally)
Gave up used BB-Gun.
Anyhow, I just obtained MyTouch 4G Slide and encountered the same problem, this place here was the last that I looked for an answers..on low/mid end Forums I've found a lot of half answers for example,
"yeah it happens"
"power off and/or restart,,it worked for me" (it didn't work for me)
My observations, at the same time that connection with G Play don't work also Google Maps does't work..Reason? No Data connection.
All was fine until I installed G Voice (conflict/ bug?)
What I did, is the following I switched to Wi-Fi, and it worked, then i uninstalled G Voice.
And tried again but this time I was connected to Wi-Fi, installed G Voice and the same problem..turned off the Wi-Fi switched to regular connection and it worked.
I know that I didn't offer any explanation or fix for the problem but there is a pattern
Fixed it!
I have found the answer! Well, at least this was what was wrong with mine:
It was just that the date on my tablet had reset to 2010. Put it back to today's date and the Play store works perfectly now.
Hope that helps.

Worked like a dream. I installed jellybean ((cm10) i think)) and wanted to go backto my ice cream sandwich. When i did, play store and youtube didnt work. I guess google apps in general. If google made it it said no connection. I tried uninstalling the updates and reinstalling them to no avail. I searched and found this thread. My date changed when i restored my back up. I didnt even realize it till i read this thread. My years changed to 2005. Switched it back to 2012 and no problems. Network connection fine. Thanks alot.

[Q] Fried my GPS, not working at all on any roms.

I was flashing between CyanogenMod 10 nightlies and DrewGaren's Jelly Bean roms, wiping data every single time and always doing a clean flash when I noticed on CyanogenMod 10/05 nightly that the GPS wasn't catching any satellites at all. It doesn't seem like it's even trying because the GPS dot doesn't even come up in the notification bar. I tried using GPS Test and it just says 0. Same thing with any other GPS application.
I tried flashing to other roms to see if it changed anything and still no luck. Finally, I flashed all the way back to AT&T stock in ODIN and still no luck!! I'm thinking of just taking it to the AT&T store and see if they can do anything about it, I don't know the warranty situation since I bought it off of Craigslist. Anybody have any ideas?
Please don't go to ATT. We can't really help you since you bought it from a. craigslist and b. all we could do is get you to call warranty department in which case they may charge you since it was not purchased at the att store.
Do you know if the GPS ever worked??
Please go to dialer and type *#0*#. In that menu go to sensor test and make sure everything is working properly.
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1767929 for a full list of tests you can do to make sure the phone is actually hardware damaged.

Got it working
Hey, thanks for the help guys. I actually got it working. Flashed stock rom with ODIN and did a factory reset and it just started working out of no where. This was after 0 GPS signal on many different roms for over 24 hours.
No idea what caused it to stop working in the first place maybe some kind of conflict with the Drew Garen Sprint based Jelly Bean rom or maybe something in Cyanogen Mod 10/05 nightly. Perhaps the phone got tired of me flashing so many roms and just needed to rest overnight lol.
If anybody else has an issue with their GPS not catching signal at all flash all the way back to stock and factory reset and hopefully it'll sort the issue out.
Wow, everything you described in your OP is happening to me. I believe this happened to me after flashing DrewGaren's ROM too (4 point something). I tried it out then went back to Wanamlite, my DD, and experienced all that you said. After Wanam I flashed 2 or 3 other ROMs and got the same response... no GPS.
Just in the process of Odin flashing a stock image to see what happens.
Edit: Back to stock, then factory reset. Tried accessing the GPS service menu but that didn't work. Final result is that GPS is not working at all and here is no indication in the status bar. Looks like I'll be off to the Samsung store for service...
I think the Drew Garen Milestone 4.5 has something to do with this. It's based on the Sprint leak and maybe that made our GPS wonky.
Just to let you know, the stock firmware I used was this one.
http://samsung-updates.com/get/648/Samsung_Firmware_SGH-I747_ATT_I747UCALG1_Android_4_0_4.html
Hopefully you can get it sorted out. Just wondering, how do you access the GPS service menu? Cause the code I know doesn't work on AT&T Galaxy S 3 at all so I want to see if the code you tried works on mine. Good luck getting your phone working.
Another reason why you shouldn't use DG roms? Lol
I'm running insomnia leaks with no gps issues. Glad to see the OP got his working again.

I did the same here is the fix.
Odin rooted stock ROM
Boot up as normal
Then do a factory wipe under settings.
You should be good to go.

Thanks for the firmware link but I am in Canada with Telus.
As for the GPS Service Menu, I saw some dialer codes for accessing it but they don't seem to work for our model.
It's weird how GPS doesn't show up anywhere on the phone now. Not the status bar or in battery usage stats. I am beginning to wonder if this is a hardware issue more than anything.
I know, it's like the GPS totally disappears from the phone, I thought it has a hardware issue too! I was actually on the phone with Samsung customer support and ended up fixing it while I was on hold.
On my first try I got no results too but when I downloaded the one from samsung-updates, flash via ODIN, and then factory reset the phone from settings that's when I finally got my GPS to work. They have the Telus software up there too if you want to give it a whirl. http://samsung-updates.com/get/2566/Samsung_Firmware_SGH-I747M_TLS_I747MVLALH1_Android_4_0_4.html
But at this point your only recourse might be to get done through Samsung customer support. Let us know what happens.

Thanks, that is the exact firmware I flashed. Just in the process of downloading the I747MVLALE8 version. I know it's older but worth a shot.
I'll update the thread as I go along but am most likely going to the Samsung store in a week or two so there will be a delay in my response.
The disappearing gpshappened to me also. I flashed dg's m 4.5 and thats when I lost gps completely. I did all of the above mentioned in other threads and couldn't get it too come back. At&t replaced it for me. I would advise staying away from sprint leaks I guess.

Update:
Got in touch with Samsung. They forwarded me to the warranty repair company located in my neck of the woods (Vancouver, BC).
Company is called Service Absolut, located in Richmond around Westminster Hwy and No. 6 Road. There is another in Montreal for easterners.
Regular warranty service is 3 business days for $0 OR 3 hour express service for $30. This place isn't too far from my office so maybe I'll give the 3-day service a try..... on second thought I think the $30 might be worth it for same day service. :cyclops:
I ran into the same or similar loss of GPS on DG Milestone 4.5 and 5. I was able to regain GPS on a CWM restore back to Milestone 4.
Really think this is a ROM bug that can be fixed in SW. I'm surprised to hear that some have had much tougher luck than I have.
Anybody heard anything from Drew Garen? (I don't have enough posts to comment in the main thread, or I'd be there)

Yep, this is exactly what happened to me.
I flashed DG's M4.5 and my GPS quit working. Very weird.
I tried 3 other ROMS and no luck. I ended up returning the phone.
Now I really want to flash DG's new ROM but it scares me...ha
Final update:
Took the phone to the service center. Tech looked at the phone and tested but couldn't find anything wrong. He replaced the mainboard and all is now fine. GPS is working well.
Next thing is to check out my new CPU now... I hope it doesn't suck.
Did you factory reset on a stock rom like everyone suggested? I was reading your posts and I didnt see that you did it. Could have saved you $.
That issue used to happen to me all the time in the Infuse 4g.

Thanks for the tip but I factory resetted the sh*t out of my phone, lol. Our phone (Canadian version) only has 2 official firmware releases for it and I Odin'd them both and performed factory reset on both, multiple times. Guess I missed that little tidbit earlier
I really hope this was just a one time occurrence.
So I ran into this same issue, although it was from flashing Smartguy's ROM and then going back to CM10. It does seem to be caused by using the Sprint leak. I was unable to recover my GPS with the above method of flashing to stock via Odin and doing the factory reset.
I decided to try going back to my Sprint leak via a Nandroid, this brought my GPS back. I then used my CM10 Nandroid again GPS was working perfectly, although I needed to use GPS test to get it working on CM10. Hope this helps others with this issue.

Can't believe you had to go through all of that but glad you got it sorted. The price we pay for tinkering with our phones so much.
