In the past we were able to get to our GPS settings by opening dialer and dialing the following number. This will not call anyone - it is a code shortcut to the settings:
*#*#1472365#*#*
However, under Froyo 2.2 rooted with SU access, I am unable to get to LBSTESTMODE
I am having issues with my GPS not locking, it started after I rooted the Froyo. I was informed rooting is not what caused the problem in another thread....so been googling to fix the issue and ran into the old code above
Please advice
Regards
There is an app in the market called lbstestmode that works. The dial pad # to enter lbstestmode disappeared in jh7 and was still missing in ji6.
When I go to the market, the app is unavailable to me. I then went to the apps website and tried to get it to download using the samsung captivate browser but it kicked me back to same thing on the Apps Market
So, I am thinking is it possible somewhere in process of my upgrading and rooting the phone got locked accidently since I am new to the whole process of understanding development? (I have superuser access and ability to eliminate apps using titanium back up so its more of an elimination of issues question)

If you mean LbsTestModeLaunch, this was actually removed per Samsung's request.
As an alternative, you can download "Any Cut" from the Market, then create an activity shortcut for LbsTestMode.

Thank You for your response
I was able to download the app. Would you please share or link how to create " a activity shortcut" for LbsTest Mode?
I am new to the whole process and dont want to create incidental problems for myself

There seems to be 2 "Any Cut" apps - to be clear, the one I'm using is by "Jeff Hamilton."
In Any Cut, select New Shortcut, then Activity. It may take a while to load... Scroll and find LbsTestMode, then tap OK. You should now have a shortcut in your home screen.

Thank you for your response. You have lit a path to enlightment for me ;-)
I found and created it. I will post my ability to resolve my GPS issue in next 24 hrs as I am now few beers down......with Oakland Raiders having a close game with San Diego Chargers.....
Regards,
So I was able to access the LbsTestMode based on instruction given and was able to fo through the following steps of "old instructions" that I was able to google......pasted below
•Step 1 -- Open menu > settings > Location & Security. Uncheck the box next to "Use Wireless Networks"
•Step 2 --follow the procedure in the "advice posted in comments above"
•Step 3 -- In the LBSTestMode menu, press “Application Settings” and change “Operation Mode” to “MS Based.”
•Step 4 -- In the LBSTestMode menu, find “SUPL/CP Settings” and change the SERVER & PORT to supl.google.com and port 7276 (DO NOT use www. in front of supl !)
•Step 5 -- Reboot your phone.
•Step 6 -- Open menu > settings > Location & Security. Check the box next to "Use Wireless Networks"
After follwing the steps above still no go? I used an app called GPS test to verify my location
Please advice
Regards,
Turn off SUPL Secure Socket as well. I am using AGPS Mode Control Plane. I've used both, this is where I've set it of late. Also, run the Get Position Test and see if it can lock on a position. Try to do this where you'll get a strong signal from many satellites (i.e., outside). Then leave LbsTestMode running, hit Home and open Maps. See if it can find your location. It should locate you assuming you got a good lock in LBSTestMode.
I've been openingLBSTestMode first and I leave it running in the background and then open Navigation. I haven't yet determined whether this has an actual benefit, is just a habit I don't want to break, or my own superstition, but that's what I do. There was discussion that some of the LbsTestMode settings don't persist after closing LbsTestMode, so this is one way to make sure the settings remain active.
The code in froyo is *#*#3214789650#*#*
this code doesn't seem to be disseminated too widely on the forums, spread the word
Thanks you all who responded on my issue. My issue has now been resolved
I was able to update my location and GPS is working fine
Regards

Hey thanks a lot this really worked well for me. I had just forced the update using mini Kies and still no luck with accurate GPS location but after I followed the steps outlined in lbstestmodelaunch and what you added I found my location was accurate to within a few meters.
The code in froyo is *#*#3214789650#*#*
this code doesn't seem to be disseminated too widely on the forums, spread the word
Spread the word, my GPS with your settings is accurate from 50 meters.. and it locks in 5 secs
The code in froyo is *#*#3214789650#*#*

Original settings:
Operation Mode: Standalone
SERVER: www.spirent-lcs.com

FWIW - the above didn't work in my 2.2'd Galaxy S, nor did the older code. I eventually got the Any Cut app (great!) and followed the instructions.
For the last 2 weeks, since the 2.2 update, I was basically unable to get any GPS lock. I did manage once - and it took 15 minutes, with 8 to 10 satellites available.
Now, with 2 or 3, I'm getting a lock in a few seconds.
If the main problem is that the web location setting for info is just flat-out wrong, why doesn't T-Mob just issue a fix for that? It seems very strange to me that this would continue to be an issue months after the rollout began.
Umm, there is SGS Tools in the Themes &Apps section that will allow access to it.

After this change, Google Maps = total crash???
So I did the change, and thought things were good. But about 3 out of 4 times, when trying to start Google Maps, it freezes, then the screen goes completely black, and there is a vibration-buzz, a pause, and two more buzzes. The phone appears totally dead. Only pulling the battery wakes it up.
To be clear, I changed the URL and port, and disabled the secure socket mode, as described in this thread. There was also and update of google maps received, which claims to have installed successfully.
So now GPS is great, but the main app I use it with is defunct.
LBSTESTMODE Not On Phone!
Before you say I know this is Samsung Captivate but I have no where else to post this.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Apollo i5801 on Orange UK and I do not seem to have the LBSTESTMODE menu when I create a activity via anycut or ADW launcher. I type in the LBSTESTMODE number on the dialler and nothing comes up, I did find however I had something called "Service mode" when I tried to launch LBSTESTMODE however this application crashed and said "android.something.something has crashed"
Please help me my I would really like to fix my GPS!
Info:
Carrier: Orange UK
Device: Samsung Galaxy Apollo i5801
Operating System: Android 2.2 Froyo
Baseband Version: I5801BVJP1
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
Build Number: FROYO.BVJPE
Hope That Helps!
I have my phone rooted with the cognition rom on it and my GPS still has a lot to be desired and was wondering if there is any fix out there or if i should try a diff rom or just wait till something new comes out. I searched the forum but I'm still confused.
Different modems may give better results. KP1 and JL3 were best for me. JK3, JK4 and JL2 would be others worth trying. The only real fix is hardware. If GPS is important to you then I suggest sending it back to Samsung for repair.

Does Samsung actually send back a working GPS?
GPS Fix. At the end of the first post, download and flash "dagnarf-gps-tweak-google.zip".
Go into "lbstestmode" (You can download AnyCut and create a lbstest mode shortcut from "Activities" or create a shortcut with ADW Launcher).
In lbstestmode, apply these settings (Most of them are already set):
Session Type: Tracking
Test Mode: S/W
Operation Mode: Standalone
Start Mode: Hot Start
GPS Plus: ON
Dynamic Accuracy: ON
Accuracy: 80
GPS Logging: OFF
Server FQDN Type: Custom Config
Server: h-slp.mnc410.mcc310.pub.3gppnetwork.org
Server Port: 7275
SUPL Secure Socket: ON
AGPS Mode: SUPL
Download and open GPS Test and it should connect rather quickly with multiple satellites, given you're not indoors with a metal roof overhead.

They did mine. I didn't even mention GPS when I sent it back. Got back the same phone with really nicely working GPS. I have no complaints now.

Do you flash that the same way you would a regular ROM?
yep, do it in recovery.
OK, this took a lot of trial and error, some bravery on my part, and SEVERAL calls to AT&T, but I finally got it working!* I am not a Dev anywhere CLOSE to the likes of DG, but I do have extensive knowledge of hacking mobile devices in general, GSM networks, CS/PS infrastructure, and industry experience from the NOC side of several MSOs (aka ISPs), so I tackled this problem from a "what would I implement if I were AT&T and wanted to force a tethering package on subscribers?" Point of view, and worked backwards from there.
Many have tried the solution already posted, and I give credit to the poster of that original "fix" while respectfully pointing out that using this "fix" accomplished AT&T deleting my data package twice, and provisioning a tethering plan automatically once, all automatically done by the system. This was not the solution I was looking for.
So, without further introductions/banter on my part, here is the step-by-step... I will try to keep explanations to a minimum for now, if they are asked for I will put them in post #2.
*Prerequisites: ROOT
*Tools required: Root Explorer, SQLite Editor (both available in market, yes they are paid apps but they are WORTH EVERY PENNY!)
----note: this can also be accomplished using adb and a sqlite database editor on your pc, but requires many, many more steps, and won't work after reboot unless you have a working busybox and can successfully chown/chmod the .db file after you copy it back to the device, and even then I still had trouble with it after reboot, so... I had success with these paid apps, so I'm writing the tutorial assuming you have them. If there is enough demand I'll write an alternate tutorial on how to do this using free tools.
*******
++++++++++++ Edited, now shorter! Thanks to all for testing these settings, the new steps are confirmed working!
*(if you used the steps prior to my editing them, you're good, your settings will work fine, the changes reflect a different, shorter way to do this)
1) Create a NEW access point setting using the following settings: (SETTINGS>WIRELESS AND NETWORKS>MOBILE NETWORKS>ACCESS POINT NAMES> {press menu} NEW APN
Name: whatever you like here, I use att
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy:
Port:
Username:
Password:
Server:
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type:
APN Type: default,agps,fota,supl,fota,tether,mms
(all settings I left blank, leave blank, make sure you press menu, save to save)</br>
2) Enable Airplane Mode
(hold power button for three seconds, select Airplane Mode)
3) Open Root Explorer
4) Navigate to: /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/
5) Click on "telephony.db"** (this should open the db using SQLite Editor)
6) Select "carriers"
7) You should see a long list of APN settings for various carriers, the ones you are interested in are rows 4, 6, and 7. Scroll ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT and the last column should be labeled "preloaded." You will notice that each is labeled "true" press and hold the word "true" in row 4 and select "Edit Field" from the pop up menu. Change the "true" to "false" and click "Save". Repeat this step for rows 6 and 7.
7b) Edit the type field of row 6. Right now the field says "tether". Change it so that it says "default,agps,fota,supl,fota,tether"
7c) Change the APN field in row 6 from BROADBAND to wap.cingular
8) Press back twice to close the SQLite editor and you should be back in Root Explorer. Close Root Explorer.
9) Disable Airplane Mode
10) Go back to the list of APNs you saw in step 1. You should see that the "locked padlock" is now unlocked on the preloaded APNs named AT&T US, AT&T US HSDPA, and AT&T TETHER. You now need to edit the one labeled AT&T TETHER. Change the following settings:
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy:
Proxy port:
APN type:
Press menu, save.
11) Select the radio button for the APN you created in step one. AT&T Tether.
12) Reboot phone.
13) Enjoy! Mobile Hotspot should now work first time no issues!
Note: (Due to some pre-existing (bug?) in the software, you do need to have wifi turned on BEFORE you enable Mobile Hotspot for it to set up properly. If you forget it will hang until you enable wifi.)
#########################
After staying up all night to figure this out, I have confirmed that using the Webtop without dock MOD combined with mine you CAN use webtop with your 3G/H+ connection!!! No wifi required!
Steps to make this work:
1) Connect Webtop
2) Using the window that allows you to control the regular phone interface, navigate to the ACCESS POINT NAMES menu described in step 1 above.
3) Select the radio button next to "AT&T Tethering"
Done! Open firefox and enjoy!
Credits to Fenny, author of the MOD to enable Webtop without dock!
Also designgears, author of Adeo, which is necessary to run aforesaid MOD!
And to t0dbld, who contributed significantly and led the discussion that resulted in said MOD.

It should, though I personally own neither, and therefore have not tested that particular functionality. There is no way that I am aware of that AT&T SHOULD be able to tell any difference between traffic from tethered devices and traffic from the device itself, so unless they are packet sniffing (illegal for ISPs, somewhat hazy regulation on wireless service providers, but would be a BIG shock to me if they were) or there is something in the actual webtop ubuntu software that would inform AT&T that webtop is being used somehow (also HIGHLY unlikely, as it would be a HUGE invasion of privacy) the answer is YES!
PLEASE if you have access to either of these $$$$$ expensive docks if you wouldn't mind test this for me and report back to confirm that indeed it does allow use without wifi.

or even better, attach the original sq file?
I hate that you are probably on final steps, but... You cannot re-create the AT&T Tethering profile manually, as this will break the functionality of the script that Mobile hotspot uses to "Verify" that you have a tethering plan...
Please go to your APN list, and press MENU>Restore Default Settings
Then (sorry) start over from step 1

I can confirm that this works great - you no longer get stuck at "setting up data link" (so no more changing APNs to fix that).
Although, I tried the newly found webtop hack which allows you to just connect the HDMI cable to a TV and run webtop - it does not work without wifi. If you try turning off wifi and use 3g, it says "communicating with ATT to see if webtop something something" and nothing loads.

Good work richhed!
Wifi hotspot works, but it does not seem to work with the hd dock over 3g only with wifi. There must be another check somewhere along the way. Too bad, hopefully we canfigure it out soon though.
I'm using the Atrix in Australia on the 3/Vodafone network, is there a way I can get it to work?

great find on unlocking there crap !! btw if you delete the apn type or the apn all together for the tethering etc you wont have to do the wifi on off thing, you have to do that because sometimes its still defaulting to the apn that is strictly tethering

Yes it does , i would check your settings again , jsut because the blue tethering active comes up does not mean it is tethering an active connection, recheck your settings and try again, working fine here

I for one would be interested in a tutorial with the alternative method!
Nice job! This hack is based on the same principle as the TBH NVRAM tether hack that we released for Droid devices except yours is done by changing the APN in the system and ours is done by changing the Tethered NAI(Network Access Identifier) strings in the NVM because that is where the carrier data authentication components are actually stored in CDMA phones. With GSM all of that is stored in the SIM card itself and is not accessible in the NVM.
The change does functionally the same thing, that being making all data use appear to the network as internal data rather than flagged as an externally tethered device.
Congratulations!
uhm I tried this, when i launch with internal viewer, i cannot edit. but when i try to launch with the db editor, it wont open cuz it says no network connect (since we turned on airplane mode)
EDIT: nvm I needed to download the editor from the market since I didnt have one installed.
Can we delete all of the other APN settings without ill-effect?

ikenley,
I am less familiar with your network, and I'll also need more information:
1) Are you using a US, AT&T branded Atrix?
2) What are the DEFAULT, working APN(s) for 3/Vodafone "smartphone" data plans?
3) Do these APN(s) require login credentials, and
4) Do they proxy their smartphone data plan
Unfortunately, if the answer to #4 is yes, then the answer is no, it (probably) won't work. Also, if they require a login, it depends on the type.

LOL, I was hoping that you wouldn't say that
Every time I personally tried I couldn't get it to stick on reboot, I think I may have been doing something wrong with the chown or something. Give me a few days I'll keep at it ;-)
BTW, if you have a basic knowledge of adb, and bash or busybox or any linux based command line terminal, basically you follow all steps the same except when you are editing the .db you'll need to copy that file to the sdcard, then to your pc, then edit it, then copy it back to sdcard, then back to /data/data/com.android.provider.telephony/databases/ and THEN you have to use adb shell to chown/chmod the file to the proper settings. I think it may be that the group ownership is changed to sdcard when you move the file... Anyway I'll work on it.

1. Download and install "ShareGPS" from market on your phone.
once the app is installed
make sure in the App's setting, check "Use bluetooth" and "Create NMEA"
2. Download and install "Bluetooth GPS provider" from market on your tablet.
once the app is installed
make sure you have these settings:
in the app preferences
check "Force"
check "Raw HDOP"
GPS type is set to "MTK"
Update rate is set to "10Hz"
SBAS is Enable
Next
on your phone, open sharegps, then bring up the menu, click make discoverable once.
then go to your tablet, bring up the bluetooth gps provider app,
go in to the preference, click chose GPS provider, do a scan, you should see your phone come up.
click on it.
you are all set.
Now setup the bluetooth gps provider widget on one of your home screens.
every time before your run any navigation apps on the tablet just make sure you go back to your phone,
bring up shareGPS,
bring up Menu and click Make discoverable.
then go to your tablet, and click once on the bluetooth gps widget.
if the widget turns "green", you have working gps on your tablet.
if the widget turns "red", meaning that your devices aren't pair correctly, just re-scan/re-pair your devices.
*** Also make sure you have "Allow mock locations" checked as well on your tablet. And that's in menu, setting, application, development.
Enjoy

Found an issue with share gps, while it works fine on any 2.2 ROM on your phone, but the nmea output is way off in certain area on 2.3 based ROMs. After a little bit of researching, I found that BlueNMEA works very well.
You can find it in market, disregard the rating, the app is very easy to use and just may take a couple of tries to pair both devices.
So use blueNMEA instead of shareGPS on your phone..
Also fo for those who are not able to find these apps, here is how I did it..
Downloaded all apps from market on phone.
Use rootexplorer and look in /data/app
Find those apps, copy and paste onto your sd card.
Then transfer over to the tablet.
Install.
I cannot get my market to find "bluetooth GPS provider" even after preforming the market fix several times. Can you post the apk?

Edited for spelling, for some reason I was giving the western keyboard a second chance.
there is also tetheredGPS which started for the nook - has both client and server widgets included.
Works pretty well, over specific wifi port, and doesnt require both wifi and bluetooth to be on. power saver!
where the hell are the proxy settings hidden in ICS,
I have tried the following: settings...wifi connection long tap.....pop up window ....modify connection...show advanced option....
nothing happens
tried connected and unconnected
used a proxy setting software form the market.......... no success at all
need this urgently to connect to a corporate network..
PS : I have original firmware per update from samsung, no root
------------------------------
ICS really screws me up.....high battery drain, many hangs....forced closes..
my home screens need always some time to load when I come back from an application.
streaming videos are stuttering........my USB/OTG connections won't work or work only sometimes, the WIFI is connecting and disconnecting all the time now the proxy problem
Settings - Wi-Fi - Long klick on your network - "Modify network config" - tick "Show advanced options" checkbox
I hope you do know that Android does not support Proxy, In samsung Models the stock phone browser can be configured to run with Proxy settings, but none of your apps will work with Proxy on a wi-fi network.
This is a reported problem, the thread can be found as below
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17231
There are several other similar complains, but google at present does not seem to be interested to add proxy support
i'm using AutoProxy app from market. Working both on ICS and GB rom
on GB I could set the proxy in andvanced WIFI settings and it worked perfectly.
I am using Junos Pulse to set up the VPN, this worked fine with my SG2 and my Note.
Now on ICS I cannot get inot the ....advanced settings.... as I have mentioned in my post I know where this normally is to find and I tried to check this option after long pressing the particular WIFI spot, it appears and I check it but nothing happens........
Yes, I know that android has a problem with proxy, thats why I am using JUNOS PULSE . it is an app from Juniper Networks (firewall hardware manufacturer) and it worked fine, but I have to set the proxy IP and Port manually.
Again, I know where those settings normally are, but they stay grey and cannot be used.
So I'd like to ask someone here to verify my finding. Again, can s.o just go to WIFI....long tap your connection, then check advanced settings. Then please control, if this feature is available after saving. In my case it is not...............
thanks in advance for the support
and , of course Auto proxy is not of any use for my problem, also sorry but the stock browsers can never be set up for proxy. In Android only the Connection (in this case the WIFI) can be set up to talk to an fixed IP on a fixed port.
May be it helps if I describe what Junos Pulse is doing: Junos Puls is connecting to the server , establishes a VPN and gives your devise a new IP(internal) and catches the traffic and routes it to the proxy. But this proxy IP and port you have to publish first. This is normally done in Android by setting the advanced settings in the appropriate connection to the proxy IP and Port. Hope this helps
Problem solved. It was a font proplem. I had installed a customized font this caused th proxy settings to be grey. changed the font.
Now I can edit the proxy ip and port.
And my WIFI is working fine on our proxy through the VPN with Junos Pulse
Hey
Sorry for the noobness but I've searched all over for this and I can't find a decent tutorial for this...
I want to connect to my company wifi but it's unfortunately by proxys... I have friends there that have access but they are on 2.3.3 ICS don't seem to get connect.
Can anyone give some light on what you guys configure your proxys manually. I don't know the machine name and all those steps that are needed on the advance settings...
Please and thanks
