Network Location for CM10/AOKP JB - Samsung Galaxy Mini

I opened this new thread for people who have problems with network location provider on CM10/AOKP JB(tested on latest CM10 and AOKP JB and deepsleep ok,i dont know if it will work on CM9.1 too)
So,
-First you need this NetworkLocation.apk and put it on /system/app/here and set permission to rw-r-r
-Second you must ad the right database on /sdcard/nogapps/here
NetworkLocation Database (copy to /sdcard/.nogapps/cells.db):
-Based on dumps of opencellid-project - all credits to those guys there!
-World
-Africa
-Asia
-Australia
-Europe
-North-America
South-America
That is,have fun...

Thanks, this is very useful

Agree! Works perfectly on the latest CM10.

Does ".nogapps/cells.db" needs to be created on sdcard?

i have downloaded the networklocation.apk and the cell-asia.db.. then i copy the apk and replace networklocation.apk in system/app and change permission to rw-r--r--. then i create .nogapps folder in sdcard, copy the cell-asia.db to it and rename it to cell.db, the permission is ---rwxr-x. is this correct step..?

thanks i will try it :good:

Which cm10 are you using? 10/10 by thewhisp?? I'm on 07/09 and I can't get it to work...should I update ROM or has it worked for anyone?

No need to change permission when the directory is SD card

Delete post please

Some people said that using this solution might be a break to copyright law against Apple, because this solution uses data from Apple to get network location when using WiFi.
What do you think ? Might be a problem ?

i'm really thanksfull for this. It works perfectly, also deepsleep. The only bug i found it's the direction : 45° of my real direction. But I've not test on the road again. Thanks.

I don't think apple is looking for this thread and i think he will look if someone say to him

From What i've Done,
Copy/Paste Apk to System/Media
Change Permission,
Move Apk to system/App
Be sure the Apk Name Should be Have No Space.
e.g Nova Launcher.apk Rename to NovaLauncher.apk
Permission :-
[x][x][0]
[x][0][0]
[x][0][0]
Reboot.
Hope Its Working

Its same, push is done using adb... u cn paste it n set permissions appropriately...
But remember, there sbould be no spaces in the name of file pasted in system/app... 'my file.apk' is wrong, 'myfile.apk' or 'my_file.apk' is right...

If i remember correctly NOVA Launcher is ANDROID 4.0.1+
ALSO try installing them instead of putting them in /system/apps if you want it in /system/apps look for the launchers on here and insert them into the .zip (the rom file) instead makes live tad easier. also save's ****ing about with the permissions
im correct about NOVA, so yea your pissing against the wind with that one

Thanks for ur response... but i seem to have used all the apktools available... i can recompile the "-res.apk" but when i put it back to \system\framework ... the UI FCs and the notification bar doesnot load.
unfortunately od has stopped. >> is the message i get when i put the modified "-res.apk".
i have noticed one thing that the recompiled apk doesnot have META-INF folder... although i tried to copy it and gave a try but still no go...
what i am trying to do is using a themed apk like lidroid or crikelos res .. decompile .. change some text under the toggle buttons ...
what am i doing wrong... ?
hmm... have you tried setting back the permissions on your modified -res.apk in /system/framework? Mounting it before hand?
If you have, you may indeed try to ask some devs or someone who knows their way in recompiling apks as this is a sensitive matter to touch with and I'm moderately more on contributing stuffs rather than delving into the internal programmings on the android ecosystem.
hmmm.. i have changed permissions as well still... Thanks for taking the time out

Go to apkyool.yml
Edit with notepad++
And below

Add -2
So it would look like
-1
-2
Then compile it lidroid-res again
Also make sure you have twframework-res.apk
And framework-res.apk installed

Only sign lidroid if you have signed every apk in your rom
I normally do this
Decompile apk
Make changes
Compile apk
Go to original apk
Press right
7-zip
Open as archive
Delete res
Delete resources.arsc
Leave the 7-zip archive open
Go to
The decompiled folder
Go to build/apk
Copy all except androidmanifest.xml to the archive
Then its done you have an apk

One of them looks like it's deodexed, didn't actually looked inside the zip so it might not be- (In KU5900 repack deodexing broke keyboard) which one did you try?
Just can pull it from the bin file if you want the keyboard from official.
Odexed version. But my installed rom is not odexed I think. There isn't any odex file in the app folder.
Use my upload is original from v30B with odex file.
I can't make my phone recognize any of the apk's.

Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app
I didnt understand you but odex files are part of the apk they belong to in system apps . When u deoxed a rom all its odex files are merged in their apk's but some apps crash if u deoxed them .like the lgime in v30b . Deoxeding has upside that u get more performance and control over the apps to remove them safely but it also has a downside . It somehow drains the battery

What makes this apk not work then? I could not understand. I did everything as it should be.

Whats your firmware version?
V30B lim417's ROM.
You can try to download a P990 ICS desoxed rom and take the keyboard from the apps.

OTA Update App needed

Hi all
I think that in few days the official Jelly Bean will come to our phones.
I would like to upgrade it using the LG OTA Update App installed in our phones.
But there's one problem: I deleted the app. I don't want to reinstall the system.
So If someone would post me the apk of this app, i would be very grateful .
Thanks in advance

1.Just download the LG FOTA Client.apk and the LG FOTA Client.odex
And the LGFOTA.apk.
2.Move the 3 Files into /system.
3.Set the permission (look the other file and set the same).
4.Reboot.
And is completed

Just re-flash the phone with the same version using "UpTestEX_mod2_marwin", choose the option "DIAG".
Takes 7 minutes and if the app is missing or the files corrupted will re-install them. All other apps/files and settings will remain.

So, I can be sure, that other apps, contacts and settings will remain after flashing it? Of course, I made a backup, but if I wanted to reinstall whole system I would have done it. But I just want to make this app work, because when the official update will come, I will update system using this app .

Not working on minicm
is it working on CM10 ? or its a waste of time to try it
If it's not already in the devices device-tree and added in the rom or added by somebody already and working then probably not going to work.
It's already been mentioned in threads about FM radio not working.
