[Q] Moving Copilot Maps on a GS3

Hi Guys,
I have installed CoPilot Navigation on my gs3 and it takes up a BIG chunk of space.
I have searched and found many users have successfully moved their maps to their External SD Card.
For the likes of me, I cannot do it so that CoPilot runs!
I have tried so many ways....
Here's a link to where I have found some info that says it is possible, one just 3 days ago!
http://forum.copilotlive.com/copilotlive/topics/is_it_possible_to_save_maps_onto_sd_card
Any Guru able to figure this out ?
I, and many others would certainly appreciate it!
Mahalo, and Aloha!

Solved - with no input, but sheer determination.
Well, since nobody uses CoPilot Live, or could figure this out, I tried relentlessly to make it work. The final result is that it DOES work with the Maps (all 5 gb of it) is now residing on the 64gb external SDCard and the program executes from the main phone memory. I had to edit the user.cfg file more than 50 times in order to get it to work, and maybe I can get the footprint smaller on the phone's memory, but I'm satisfied at this point since I have almost 11.9gb usable in the phone memory now, as compared to a little over 6gb! ALK Technologies (the developers) said it would not work......... But it does.
I use CoPilot Live because it works without having a Data connection as opposed to the stock navigation app. I sometimes travel on roads in the boonies and without a data connection, I might end up never able to find a way out! I have the ENTIRE North America, Alaska, Hawaii and individual states downloaded and that is all anyone in North America would probably need. I already, more than once, have been without a GPS after "Data Connection Lost" occurred... Not anymore!
If anyone is going to use the CoPilot Live app, here is what you need to edit in the user.cfg file:

Hello bobolinko,
Can you help me please?
I followed your directions but still CoPilot thinks it is downloaded to the internal memory.
I have forced closed the app and cleared cache files but still the same.
Any tips?
This is on Galaxy Note II rooted running stock 4.1.2
T.I.A.

Please help! Suddenly, I cannot download 2 games I legally bought

This is a longer post so please bear with me. I have an R800i, never been rooted, stock Android 2.3.4. Recently I've decided to do a factory reset (erase all data), just to clean up the phone a bit and get some more RAM space.
After the reset I'm re-downloading some of the games I have bought on Google Play. There are no problems EXCEPT for these two games:
Galaxy on Fire 2 and Lara Croft: Guardian of Light.
I can download the basic "apk" from the Google Play correctly, but once I start the games they need to download additional data, and that's when problems arise. What happens is this:
Galaxy on Fire 2 Xperia Play edition: It asks to download a 400MB file, I click OK then nothing happens, then an error message: "Are you sure you want to quit? Error: java.io.IOEXCEPTION: Unexpected Http status code 404 expected 200".
Lara Croft: Guardian of Light: It downloads a bit of data, than wants me to tap display to confirm, I tap and then an error message: "Error (Marmalade v5.2.3 [306653]) Cannot open file console.bin for serialising (read). Did you include this file in your mkb's "assets" block?"
This happens all the time, I've tried countless times. On different wifi hotspots too.
I have NEVER EVER before experienced these error messages. The two games are now impossible to download because of this. It happens on wifi and 3g, the same situation. I have since re-done the factory reset twice (I once reinstalled Android using the Sony Companion software on my PC) and the problem persists. Does anyone have any idea what could be the cause?
Could this mean the games are no longer available to download, even though I've paid for them?
Should I contact the devs regarding this?
I must stress again, I have never even attempted to root my phone.
I would greatly appreciate any advice.

You should try contacting the developers since it seems like an error on server side (404 means not found, so yeah...), and if they cannot help you, then you should manually download data from internet (it's not illegal if you paid those apps).
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app

I'm starting to think I will never be able to play these two games again on my Xperia Play.
It's strange, because every other game in my Google Play library works.
Not that it matters but I have contacted both developers. No response from Fishlabs yet, they only registered my question.
Square Enix Europe (Lara Croft game), on the other hand, sent me a response which says: "We would recommend you upgraded your OS for the latest Android OS available and start downloading the game again.". LOL they apparently have no clue that I CANNOT upgrade my XP to a higher version of Android and this is the best they can get.

[Q] NBA JAM can't install, download error 101

This is by far my favorite game, I came from a S3, which the game worked fine. I am able to download the game, but when it launches it requires another file, this is where the problem is, it attempts to load, then after a few seconds, download error 101. Not much can be found on google, other then other people with the issue, but no fixes that I could find.
Any help would be great, I did try to change the DPI in the build.prop to 360, that did not help, so I went back to the stock 640.
Thanks,
Eric

Same issue here on a 3f connection. I haven't tried on wifi though.

I have tried wifi, 3g and 4g LTE, all same result. I clear the data, it goes to the download screen again, then same error.

Same issue on wifi. Maybe the servers are down?
---------- Post added at 06:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:10 PM ----------
OK the servers aren't down. I just downloaded the game on my Note pro 12.2. So it's something else.

I don't have the game. But I did find this thread. There are few suggestions that may be fruitful for you: Possible help
My other suggestion, if you have another Android device, I would install the game on it, and create a backup of it; there are several apps you can download to do this. Once you have the backup, you can side load the app. It should be noted that once the app is installed, there isn't another download that must be done with you initially start the application such with the GTA games. I had to do this with GTAVC on the Note II.

Thanks for the link but our issue is when we run the game and the game tries to download it's game files. I think it tires to connect to the ea servers to download. I could be wrong.
If you do Google search there are more people with this issue but on different devices.

Yeah I'm getting this too, and and error with dead space. Dead space doesn't even come up in the play store. Like why block the most powerful flagship phone?

I wonder if it's having an issue verifying you actually purchased the game. I know GTASA does a purchase check before letting one download the addition game files. I tried to play that game without purchasing and it got an error; not that error you got, but about being unable to verify purchase.
That's really odd about Dead Space. I think I had the same issue on the Note II. I don't recall if I tried side loading it.

I don't know what it is. Won't download on my tablet but would on my phone. Wifi connection on both

There is an update for nba jam for the note 4. I downloaded it and it is now letting me download the the extra data.

wouldn't do gthe additional download. Did the update, and no more error and downloaded the additions files. Appears to be working. I didn't try playing, but the game did load.

I updated in the last couple of days and at first it asked me to download additional data, and as my internet is down at home for the moment I opted out.
Today when I used and open Wifi to download the data, I get the error 1010...
I'm on a Nexus 5 though, but I couldn't find a specific thread for this for my own phone.

Works now.

web network login lost quickly. - is it an LG thing

I haven't. Had this problem on android and not since iPhone 3g years ago in college. Here is an example - you go to, school, hospital, wherever and log in through their website. Click accept to the rules and bang u r riding waves. But 10 minutes later after not being on your phone, class is done, etc you open your browser and... U want to throw the phone - now its time to hit retry, which never works, so u have to open another page to something different than Google until the website login page comes up and you can sign in by hitting accept again. I Sat next to my wife and we tried the same pages, ate lunch, opened up and her note 2 would surf no issues, my LG g3 lost connection and had to,back to the accept/login screen. So is it a setting, LG thing, or android 4.4 thing, please save my sanity and data plan.

probably an network thing after 10 min of inactivity it breaks the connection, you wife's note was probably syncing something in the background, so the inactivity wasn't quite as long it is that or you have ennablede the option to shut down wifi when screen is off(settings/wifi/settings/keep on durring sleep/always

I knew someone would try and say that even after it happening at multiple places and having a good test proving it. If your answer is the case, then what is her phone doing that keeps he continual, connection? Bc I can't stand this and need to,make it happen on my phone. My shoutcast is doing it too. I open Pandora to fast forward and it says connection lost and Pandora starts playing a different song than what is still playing on the shoutcast. It is not a shoutcast or network issue if I loose network connection everytime on different networks and never had the issue before with other tablets and phones except a ijunk phone5 years ago. Shoutcast streams a link sent to it, My phone should not drop the connection regardless. I don't loose WiFi connection to my house and it logs in no problem. Its the way my phone is handling the network connection. Ok maybe u r correct, in that other phones sends a continual ping, but how to fix my phone. Oh now that I think,about it, I lost connection 3 Times last night at work if my screen was off for more than a minute or so with the Amazon chat customer service for a return. I had to put my screen on no-time-out to finish the chat. This network feature to hold a connection at school years ago was one of my favorite things after coming from,iPhone. No need to mess with connecting every time if u stayed in the building.

Please pardon my thumbs, oh and the WiFi on when screen off was oem set to "on"

Solved - So Verizon tier 2 support said it was an anti virus app closing the connections. I didn't have anything which reminded me to get something good for avg i suppose. Anyway he said likely myVerizon security which I didn't set up. Anyway I downgraded and used the flash tool method to go to 10b, rootee, then used titanium and uninstalled everything on the safe bloatware to remove list. All is work now, I did have 30 minutes last night where I kept looking and instantly regaining home WiFi while watching videos on a website, no YouTube app. Networks that require web login looking connection is solved. Also, pandora issue is solved

The new Amazon Video app and its quirks

Hello guys and girls,
I've been using the unofficial Amazon Video app (the one pulled from a Sony TV that's been floating around) for a while now and it worked pretty much OK (except for the functions triggered by the 4 coloured buttons).
But, because the update to Nougat, I decided to ditch the old app and use the one included with the update. Until my wife pointed out some obvious problems:
1. When the Shield goes to sleep (like when pausing the movie to go pop some more corn) the new Amazon Video app is closed. Restarting the movie implies restarting the app and navigate to the movie again. This was not the case with the unofficial app.
2. When restarting the movie, it is rewinded some 30 - 60 seconds, which is a little too much, especially when you've just seen that part 5 minutes earlier. This was not the case with the unofficial app.
3. The parental control seems to be active this time around. For example some episodes of Two and a half men need the pin code every time they are started and restarted. Problem is that we wouldn't need this feature at all, but cannot be disabled. Again, not the case with the unofficial app.
Have you noticed these quirks? Are they annoying to you too?
Sadly the old thread seems to have been deleted so I cannot recover the unofficial Amazon Prime Video app...
Wish you a great day!

I can't even get my Amazon Video app to load. I just get error message 1066 (this one) and all I can do is go back to the home screen
Amazon CS just denied that the Shield TV supports Amazon Video and Manuel Guzman from Nvidia can't pick up my error feedback, so no help really.

Just outta interest... And as I ran... (Well more like scatterbrained), also running into this Problem with Amazon. I would ask if your not running some kind of Proxy Service \ VPN App?
I happen to be currently using Keep Solids VPN, as it was One of the first such Apps to have appeared in the TV PlayStore. It worked better under Lollipop. But, I suspect the quriks with Nougat will improve a bit further down the road.
The uphsot of all this is, is if I forget to turn this Service back off again latter on, when I want to browe a bit on the Amazon App. It runs into nearly the same conditions such as you've described. Save being very, very lagy, and slow. When it actually does try to do something other than landing on a Black Screen.

I am using no proxy or VPN. There's no need for one or the other with the German Amazon Prime Video.

I do have VPN Unlimited installed but as I'm in the UK I have it disabled for Amazon Video as it's not needed.

Humm odd I'm from Germany (w/German Amazon), but am using VPN Unlimited, to purloin such Services, such as the BBC iPlayer, and as many US Catch-up Services that do NOT require a Cable Sub Login, to access it. Everything is working more or less.
Like I said sometimes I forget that I have it enabled to watch say iPlayer, than shut it down to play some Game or other. Than decide I go watch Some Top Gear um.. The Grand Tour, only to wonder what the heck was wrong with Amazon, and why it wouldn't load up, or if it did manage to load up. Why it would just sit and spin, till it timed out, with some Error. Which was near enough to the Ops Error Code. But I can't say if it was that very exact Code, or not.
It's about this time when I remember that I did in fact still have my VPN turned on. Once I go to the VPN Unlimited App, and then proceed to turn it back off again. It's at that moment when Amazon starts working for me again.

It wasn't my VPN as I was disconnecting that but you got me thinking... I had a DNS service that I set up ages ago (and in fact don't even use) but it was still set in my static IP configuration in network settings!! I reset my network back to dhcp and it works now so THANK YOU so much. Amazon CS were useless and the the error message didn't tell me much at all.
