location problem at Froyo, please help

i cant use wireless network for location any more when i updated to froyo.
for example, i get "waiting for location" "your current location is temporarily unavailable" .
any ideas?

Did you update the radio when you flashed froyo?
I've had this issue on previous roms but not yet on froyo.
When this happens to me and a gps on/off doesnt fix it; I reboot the phone.

I've had that issue, but a wipe fixed it. It was about time for a wipe anyway...

i wiped cache/ dalvik cache, no luck.
wipe data? means i have to reinstall all the apps reset all the setup?

i tried something.
wipe data, no luck
reflash the froyo, no luck
wipe data and reflash Froyo, it works!
restore to previous CM505, it works!
restore to CM505, and flash Froyo, no luck........
what should i do if i want to keep my data and Froyo ?

I'm having the same problem. Came from CM5.0.6, no wipe, just flashed froyo and pretty much everything works (sweet!) except network location provider. GPS is fine. Network location just always times out.
Just like dirwdirw I'd like to keep my app data and settings; anyone figured out anything we can reset to make this work w/o wiping?

Use Titanium Backup. I made a thread in the apps forum asking for what could be moved and not have those issues. I didn't get answers but I did find it for myself and posted there.

My location doesn't work with launcher pro, only with the stock launcher.

Same here... Froyo on N1, and havent found any clue yet.
If someone has it, please share!

same here!
im starting to get really worried, i just read that FRF50's radio its official, and my cel sucks with it...

Just updated to FRF83 using Modaco's <android.modaco.com/content/google-nexus-one-nexusone-modaco-com/311896/24-jun-frf83-stock-rooted-deodex-superboot-repacks> update+root+insecure, still the same!
I really don't get why it's not working!

Yep, same problem here with Froyo. Had it with FRF50 and now with FRF83. I'm unable to have a location without GPS.
I did a complete wipe then flash, but nothing changed.

That solved it for me though. You're talking about a full wipe right? Cause indeed, dalvik wipe doesn't solve this issue.

Yes, a full wipe, a factory reset.
Will do it again... I may be lucky this time.

From the settings menu, or from recovery? From the menu it never worked for me.
I think I'll wait for CM6, wipe, and install it. It's too annoying to manually set the position of the weather widget.

From Recovery.
But I've just finished wiping and flashing again... and it works !
It didn't work when flashing FRF50. But when flashing FRF83 after a wipe, it's ok.
Thank's !

[Q] MiniCM-3.0.0

Hi!
I'm using MiniCM-3.0.0 from nAa.
I've got a Force Close when I try to use phone.
Does someone experience this bug too?
And in this case do you fix it and how?
Thanks by advance.

Full wipe and flash rom again?
Sent from my Xperia X8 using xda premium

I could but I don't think it'll solve my problem.
Before flashing the ROM, I've previously made a full wipe, a cache wipe and a dalvik cache wipe.
I'll give some more infos if I try this (but for the moment I don't want to lose my config, messages...).

Err, sorry. but, launcher fc? or else??

after you unlock it you say it fc or before?

It's the phone application FC.
The FC happen when I start a call. Then I'm brought back to the "desktop".
The call works but I can't stop it or go back to phone application (dial pad).
After Full Wipe again (cache, dalvik cache...) and flash ROM again, it works.
But I've just installed Speedtest.net application and it broked it all =(
Do you have any idea on how to fiw this?
(I think I'll soon re-wipe re-flash XD)

did you change the LCD Density? from 160 to 140 i did and this happened to me when receiving calls

Thank you so much Lloir!
You found out the problem =)
I don't know if this bug has been reported...
I'll post it on the dev topic.

No worries

[Q] formatting internal SD card

It's always so scary posting on forums like this but I did multiple searches and couldn't seem to find my answer so here I am.
I have just flashed from ALBA Syndicate v4 to RocketRom v1 JB and all is well aside from some of the known bugs.
But I have a query.
When browsing my internal SD card I see all sorts of folders and data left over from all of my previous installs and apps. No I am not sure if this actually affects the way my phone works but I don't like how messy and confusing it is. So I went into settings and tried to format USB storage as they call it. It said complete but all folders were still there and it seems as though nothing had changed. PS I don't mind losing pictures or anything at all, I want a clean start.
I also tried to 'format /sdcard' in CWM but it said there was an error mounting it and couldn't compete. I guess that's because it is referring to an external card...
If someone would help me I would greatly appreciate it. I would like to know how to format my internal storage and when or how it is safe to do so.
Many thanks in advance!

PPS I couldn't post in the official thread for RocketRom v1 because I am still a forum noob but I wanted to say a massive thank you because it's awesome. And thank you for my 50gb dropbox upgrade!

Easiest way to format properly is to mount it on your PC, then manually select all the files and delete. The built in wipe never seems to do a proper wipe.

i have the same problem, and i also tried to delete all data trough pc. and also tried through rom changing but all data and apps showing as it is.
pls help us guys

what rom and kernel are you on? what do you mean by deleted data and all showing ? apps will be deleted when you do a factory reset from recovery. but you have to be on a safe kernel. if you installed a non wipe rom,. it will still carry on your apps. you need to install a wipe rom

Thanks in advance if anyone has a solution.

No Service

I just updated my ROM I was using MIUI 2.9 (I think) and I just updated it to 3.2.8. Everything on the old ROM was working except the themes, of course.
After my update I don't get service. I have bars, but no service. Do I need to do the wire trick again or am I doing something wrong? I haven't had this issue before and I don't see anyone else having this issue.
I wiped cache and davlik before the update. Should I redo the update?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thx

I did that. Still nothing. I did notice that I my APN disappeared. I have now done a factory reset. See if that will bring me back. I tried manually adding the APN but it wont save.

Try flashing another ROM. Also verify your imei is still in the settings. Factory reset won't help as it just deletes data/sdcard

Why did you flash 3.2.8? Flash the newest version. One version had an APN bug for some reason

I flashed 3.2.8 bc I thought that was the newest version. I guess I found the APN bug. hahahaha.
In either case I appreciate yalls help. I just went with a different ROM I went with the PAC MAN ROM but now I'm having an issue with it reading my SD Card. I'm wondering if it's the gapps file I downloaded. hmmm.. idk.

Need help on recent rooted+CM9 rom

Hi. I'm having a really big problem and a hard time trying to get my phone back to how it was. I was able to do a backup with CWM rom manager before i flashed to CM9. The reason why i want to go back to the ROM that came with my phone is because i'm not able to mount my SD card. I tried it in the recovery reboot menu. I mounted everything, then when it reboots, i go into settings and try to mount both the external SD and the internal SD card, The external one mounts, but i still can't see anything from it. And the internal never mounts.
So i did use the back up utility, and now when i go to restore, It says that the MD5 checksum aren't matching up or something. I'm also scared because it says that the battery is not charging. I've turned the phone off and am letting it charge now to see if it'll charge. But it was down to 11%, And i'm starting to get scared cause i might be without a phone. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
How can i wipe CM9 and go back to the ROM that came with my samsung 4g exhibit II when i got it? this is what it was before;
exhibit ii 4g
sgh-t679
android 2.3.6
kernel 2.6.35.7-perf (I didn't upgrade this)
build #: gingerbread uvle1
P.S. After i rooted it and flashed it into the root_kit. I then flashed it into "cm-9-20121125-UNOFFICIAL-ancora_tmo". So this is the rom that's giving me the problem. I really hope someone understands what's going on and can help me. I just want to go back to how it was before. And 1 more thing. I can only browse the sd card through wondershare mobilego for android. All my files are still there, But i can't see them on the phone, Just through USB connection.
Thank you so much
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

Go into cwm wipe system 3 times dalvic cache and so on, then restore, or you can just do a clean install of the ROM you wish.

Oh wait, Something good happened. I read somewhere else that i might have to format the internal sd card. I just did that and now i'm able to see my external sd card. all my music and pics are here. Hmmm, weird... now i'm going to try and backup the texts and logs that i saved from mobilego. but i still might want to go back to the factory rom because the screen was bigger.

I just can't flash the gapps .zip file. It says that it can't open and then it just says (bad). So i can't connect my google account to my droid as it stands.

Download gapps again. And flash, Do not restore system apps, only do user apps

odouppi practical
I upgraded to CM10. Now the gps doesn't work. also the usb connection doesn't work so i can't load the cm9 i don't think. If i wipe the ROM, will that load it back to the factory one? or will it make my phone useless?
Update: Ok, I'm able to connect via wifi with Mobilego. Should i upload root-stock.zip and flash that so it can go back to gingerbread (or whatever the ROM is called that is the basic one that was on before i changed?)
Update 2: I'm just having a problem with GPS. in google maps (a program i do use a lot), Is not able to get my current location. I wonder if anyone else is having this problem from CM10

Root-stock.zip will not get you back to gingerbread. You should read the t679 XDA wiki. Five or six times even.

maybe i should try doing this when i'm sober...

Yeah that would help alot

I think i'm going to stick with this ROM. But the only problem is that the facebook app seems to be crashing. it doesn't even load up. and gps works in one app, but not in the google maps apps.

What do you mean Facebook is crashing, on occasion I get Facebook has stopped, but if you hit WAIT it loads just fine
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda app-developers app

No, It's working now. I had to uninstall it. Restart the phone, Then install it again.
The only thing that's not working is the gps on google maps.

Ok look, a general rule of thumb whenever you are installing a new rom, do a full Rom wipe = Factory Reset. Then flash your new rom. Then proceed to install the necessary Gapps. Then clear cache and dalvik cache. Then fix permissions. Then your set. The only time you can install a rom over another rom is if its an update, from the exact same rom and same os.

Soooo happy with CM10

I This I clear the cache, dalvik cache (and maybe even data). I wiped everything in that menu except ROM and system. It was my first time working with this. I did it in less then a week of lightly reading about it. I'll make sure to remember that man.
Thanks
:good:
P.S. I LOVE CM10. This ROM is just phenomenal. I couldn't believe my eyes when i went from Android 2.3.6 to Android 4.1.2. This site has helped me a lot. Please are very friendly and i appreciate that a lot.
Thanks once again, this site is very helpful.
