I have recently replaced my main logic board, everything works just fine but I am unable to get any GPS signal so using my tablet as a car navigation is out of question. Any ideas as to where I should look in order to fix it or other alternative solutions?

I can only guess that the gps unit on your new board is not connected or is broken somehow?

You said it can't connect to any gps.... I assumed it was working before you replaced you main board?

My Asus 1000HA's left click button has really gotten un responsive and it's a pain in the ass. [I turned on the mouspad click but that get's in the way, anyway] and since my g1 is always charging on it I figure why not make a usb mouse app?
My g1 is rooted with multi touch and it would be a very simple UI.
Right click, left click squares. then trackball or multi touch to scroll up or down. Figure that there would have to be software installed on my Notebook though, anyone think they could devolop this?
I know Gmote is similar but the fact it has to be on wifi really isn't very pratical for the g1's battery life.
How about using Gmote while the phones plugged in ? Seriously though, I'm sure it's possible as it's possible to tether, I see no reason it couldn't tether and send data. I doubt such an app currently exists, however.

Lol cause it takes a lot longer for the phone to charge while using wifi
And yea the g1's Sloth multi touch would be great to use for scrolling.
...why not just charge it on the wall after using your computer and turning wifi off

The point of the request is to turn my g1 into a mouse pad.
I don't need a mousepad to my wall.
And I don't use a wall mount charger anymore, I just charge my notebook from the wall and my g1 from my notebook which works out real well.

it was about not using wifi. gmote requires wifi...
he wants the g1 as a mousepad through usb. quite interesting idea, even if i have no solution.
It's a little staggering at the amount of people not reading before posting, understand I could go edit my OP to knock out these questions but still. Really?

And the bad part is that this is still the first page. But back to the topic this is an interesting idea.
you can use AndRemote, or PhoneMyPC, both work perfectly. I use PhoneMyPC personally so my G1 acts as a wireless keyboard and mouse.

It works over data. So 2g, 3g, or Wifi.

does it require software to be installed on the pc?
do you think it could be possible to have an app that connects
via bluetooth?
my goal is to make my phone a wireless bluetooth keyboard for my PS3
ive seen it done on windows mobile.

It requires software running on the PC.
However, you can try:
mkRemote
http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-devbury-mkremote-zpA.aspx
BluetoothRemote
http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-stickycoding-bluetoothremote-ptEw.aspx
Both are keyboard, and mouse/keyboard apps that operate over bluetooth. I don't know how they work with a PS3 tho.
wow, i just tried out phonemypc.
this is exactly what i was looking for.
so awesome
Has anyone had problems with their hd7 wifi cables being broken or just disconnected? My HTC HD7 was working fine and then wifi would work every once in a while and now it's completely stopped working. I was thinking about breaking it down and checking the connections and the wires, but I want to see if anyone has done this and found anything out.
Well there's a point to consider...

That the Wi-Fi is damaged... if the antena is good maybe the card is damaged, but the whole card can be replaced, it's the Radio board... the small one.
my aunt has an old HTC HD7 shes going to give me with a busted screen. Which board is the radio board? I can look up the disassembly online. Just need to know which board it is.
So I woke up one morning turn on my TV I notice it was updating and thought nothing about it but then it went to a blank screen. I reset it then it wasn't connecting to wifi then I went on my computer and it says that if I did reset it wouldn't connect to my wifi unless I contacted my router provider. Didn't want to go through so I bought a new one. After I set it up and relaunched it went to a black screen again then exchange it and it happened again. It has nothing to do with the device it's the new update. I hope someone knows how to fix it. Please i like chromecast don't want to return it. Someone please help.

Mine just "died" too.
Didn't notice if it was updating but basically had been plugged into my TV and working for months, then i tried using and my TV would just say no signal when i switched to that HDMI port.
Called amazon and have a new one on the way.
bummer.

Google says it should work, just requires change to router settings.
Did you add your Chromecast MAC to the allowed list?

Fix
Mine seemed to be dead too. I tried reseting the device but without any success. The only fix by now is to remove Chromecast from HDMI, but keep power cable plugged in. So i start my tv without Chromecast being connected to hdmi port, and after the led on the chromescast became steady white, no blinking, i would connect it to it. It worked that way. Had to do this before each time i start my tv. I hope it will help u and hope that google will fix this in future update.

Yeah, Build 14651 is having problems booting up for me too. My CC ends up going "blank" when its plugged into my Yamaha AVR. It works fine when I plug it directly into my TV or if I let it boot up while unplugged from any HDMI port.
My other two CCs on Build 13000 work fine with my AVR.
I posted to this thread about this issue:

Hi,
I have installed nexus gen 1 in my Polo R6 and its working pretty well right now. When I put the key in the tablet starts and turns airplain mod off and wifi on. And when I take the key out and its not putted in again in 15secs the airplain mode goes on, wifi off and force shutdown spotify and Google maps.
There is no acc in vw so to get the tablet on when key is in I have the positiv cabel it via the fusebox. There was one fuse wich has power when I put the key in the lock.
The audio is via a aux connected to Pioneer MVH-X560BT with a rear aux input so I get a clean look.
I have just one problem and would need some ideas, the nexus gps has some problem to the get singnal. So how would you recommend to get better gps singnal?

i have mine in the dash and have no gps issues at all. try gps fix or similar app first if it doesnt fix you could pull the antenna off the back of the case run it behind the rear view mirror then solder wires from the pins on the mother board to the pins of the antenna.it is pretty simple to do. or buy a bluetooth gps unit like 10-20 usd and pair it to the device via a app..
Pretty much the same as b3ltazar if you do move the GPS antenna though make sure you use quality shielded cable to avoid interference.

Do you think it is possible to buy one gps antenna and solder the wires of that to the mother board pins of the nexus? If not were is the nexus antenna in the backcover and will the antenna still work if I put cabel like 1m between it and the nexus?(sorry for asking but my is in the car and the car is not at home) Thnax for answers!
I guess the only way to find out is to try it might work then again what's on the case may only be a small part of the GPS unit the circuitry being on the motherboard I know external WiFi antennas have been fitted with some quite spectacular results search for nexus 7 Magic mile to see what I mean.

I got the gps working now by soldering wires between the nexus motherboard and the gps antenna. The antenna is now next to nexus but still behind the dash. Works like a dream!:highfive:
I'm guessing your back cover was not on all the way, and the pins were not making contact to the antenna on the cover. But you fixed it. Great job, happy it worked out for you.

I use Redmi 4x with Lineage OS 15.1. My controller used to connect both via BT and OTG normally, but recently, even though it connects normally, both ways, it doesn't send any kind of feedback, neither in apps or out of them. Anyone else has the same issue ? The controller works normally on other phones I tried to connect it. Any help with the matter is appreciated.
Try removing it from Bluetooth paired devices and pair again maybe that'll help.
