HTC EVO 4G :: Web Broser Unable To Locate GPS / Way To Select Program To Use
Sep 24, 2010
So everyone hates the Sprint Navigation because it constantly runs and drains your battery... agreed... but I don't really feel like rooting my phone if I don't have to so here's the dilemma and question.
Dilemma: Sprint GPS seems to be the default GPS to for the web broswer to use. Because of this an app like Zombie Run's Multiplayer, cannot communicate with GPS satellite's it's set up for because the phone is connecting with Telenav (hypothesis, but Verizon phones locate gps and sprint does not)
"Aboutebug" in a web browser only gives the option to use gps or not.
Is there anyway to select which GPS program you want the web browser (or phone in general) to use?

I was wondering if anybody had the same issue with GPS as I did. When I launched Locations first time, it found the satelite very fast. Now it almost cannot find a satelite to update my location. I wrote almost, because once it did manage, but that was once in at least twenty tries. Do you have any idea how to check if the radio is ok. I read somewhere that one should try with master reset of the phone. If so, would it be enough to backup my data with Titanium backup and option "Backup all users apps + system data" and restore it later on? Will that make a full restore of my phone or do I have to backup some additoial data? Like, what will happend to my personalize data, apps passwords etc.

I've had this issue with Nexus 7 rooted stock ROM 4.1.2 and 4.2 using TWRP 2.3.2.1.
Earlier I had gotten a TWRP version to save to a USB-OTG but then I had some problems with root and I re-rooted the device. Then I got error message trying to use TWRP. I upgraded to 4.2 and problem persisted.
Running stock ROM 4.2 on rooted Nexus 7.
Backup Complete
Failed
Backup Folder /data/media/0/TWRP/BACKUPS/hash and date
E:Unable to locate android secure partition
Using Ghost Commander, I go to /data but the folder does not open. I can go to /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/hash/hash/date and that folder does open, but it is empty.

I'm trying to access the textviews (for starters, eventually replace with imageviews etc) which are stored in the tablerows in the code below.
The line beginning 'log.d' was the part I was working on, trying to get it to print out the contents of the 2nd text view in the first row, but I can only get as far as selecting the tablerow using "getChildAt(i)".
Trying "getChildAt(0).getChildAt(1)" doesn't select the textview as I would have expected it to; says that it's a View and as such, doesn't have this method - though unless I'm mistaken, aren't tablerows ViewGroups, which do have this method? code...

I have couple of contacts which have multiple numbers so I added all of those under a single name Now, when I try to message those names, starting from "new message", somehow typing the names in "To" bar does not thrown those names. Instead, it shows some weird number (e.g. 2229 etc) when typing those names Net result, the contacts are not accessible from messaging application. Now I need to go to the contacts to text them.

Anywho, I want to go into Gmail, compose a new email, and be able to select contacts (or even have the app provide a look-ahead list based on what I type). This is exactly how the Gmail app for my Blackberry 8830 worked so I don't understand why there seems to be less functionality no an Android phone. In any case, it seems that no matter what, all I can do is manually type in email addresses. Also, I know I can go into Contacts (People) and select a person's email. This brings up a menu option to email using Gmail or my Exchange email account. This in't good enough because all I can do is open a new email to one person this way. What if I want to email 10 people!?

I've got a Nexus S running 4.0.4 and the emulator running 4.1.2. I'm experiencing the exact same thing on both:
I have two exchange accounts configured in the EMAIL application. When I view the unified inbox and compose a new email, I am unable to select the non-default FROM address (clicking the FROM address does nothing). In order to send an email from the non-default, I have to enter the inbox for that account THEN compose a new email - requires several more clicks than necessary.
I have asked several friends and some say they do have this option - however they are all on carrier customized roms.

I have a problem with a USB hosting program I have written for the Galaxy Tab 10.1. I am trying to communicate with a PIC microcontroller via USB and had the program working a month or so back. Attachment to the PIC was by using an intent in the manifest, as per the standard method. However, I then upgraded via Kies to Android 4.0.4 and since then have not been able to use the program.
at first I had no luck in even seeing the PIC but once I told the PIC to pretend it was a mass storage device that problem cleared up (the original version was configured as an HID). It seems that in 4.0.4 Samsung have reintroduced the "whitelist"
Now I have the issue that I can trigger my program on plugging in the PIC (which proves that the permission is working on attaching) but within the program the only intent that is seen is the MAIN one.I don't want to go away from a stock device, and I don't want to have to downgrade back to 4.0.3 which I had when the system was working.

Just did a factory reset to solve my Gmail and contact syncing issues, and now that the phone is all started up again, I keep getting a voice while doing the *228 option 1 that says "we are unable to program your phone at this time". Anyone have any ideas?

Got Froyo installed on my Incredible. Can play the .3gp files on my computer, but can't find a program that will edit them natively. Have tried Windows Live Movie Editor (beta), Elements 8, Coral X3, etc.
Guess I can convert them using some 3rd party tool to DV-AVI or something, but why do a second generation? Any suggestions?

New to Android and starting to work on file mgmt. I set up some subfolders on my SD card for pictures. I have been moving pictures from one folder to another, but I can only move one at a time. Is there a way to select multiple picture files and move them to another folder (like "Select All" with Windows)? This is the sequence I've been following: Use the Edit Icon in the Astro taskbar, select Move, then going to the directory folder I want to move them, and hit Paste. Moving one file at a time is taking for ever.

I'm trying to implement a Select All menu item for a ListView in a ListViewActivity. The relevant parts of my ListViewActivity: public class MyListViewActivity extends ListActivity browsed around stackoverflow.com and the google; the above is something that should work. But it isn't. setSelection(i) appears to be the method I want to call on ListView but it's not working as advertised. What am I doing wrong? Is this even possible on Android in code?

Without turning on GPS, the phone cannot find my location at all. It doesn't know where I am, so the apps such as weather bug and google map won't work unless I turned on GPS.
Does anyone have this problem. It can find me after I turned on my GPS. It's like it can't locate the cell tower network.

I found this site trying to figure out (what I'm sure you will laugh at me having problems with) how to find the audiobooks I've downloaded using Overdrive Media Console on my Aria. I searched on the forum, but my question is probably just too simple.

Is there any kind of app that can locate other Android phones? Like, maybe run the app on both phones, then have it show up on the maps, so we could find each other using GPS? Me and my friend go in the trails around my house a lot, and our phones are very accurate for where we are, so we're not worried about the accuracy of the GPS, as we know how it is already.

I tried searching for this but haven't been successful. I'm looking for a basic app that will tell me what stores are in my immediate location/area if I type in the name. For example, if I'm dying for a cup of coffee and search for Starbucks, it would map out the nearest starbucks stores and I could pick one and maybe head for it with navigation. I have been using Maps but think it's too nonspecific -- if I type Starbucks it will list all stores in the country; if I type in the nearest city it will give me a list of stores but not do it visually on a map. Apologies if this is too basic a question. Today I was driving around in a county not too close to home, and needed a party supply store, but couldn't find one using my phone. I searched "party store" after mapping my location, and it came up with a list of motels/Comfort Inns about 20 miles away.

I recently lost my phone, and had an app on it that texted me the location. Unfortunately I was overseas and didn't get the phone back, but it was a good little app - but for the life of me I can't remember the name of it or find it in the market.
The exact fucntionality was that when a different sim card is put in the phone, it preiodically sends you 3 texts with the location of the phone by cell tower, GPS and another (WPS I think?) format. So you get a rough location and also the phone number of the person with the phone. Handy...
Anyone got an idea of what this app was called? It's not Wavesecure, Lookout (which totally failed to locate the phone or restore the backups - rubbish), Where's My Droid...
As I say, done an extensive web and market search and can't find it anywhere..

Is there a way to locate all the fonts installed on Android?
I have several fonts through an app 'Go Launcher Fonts'. It is no problem setting those fonts for Go SMS or Go Launcher, or for other apps that can scan the system for fonts.I want to put the fonts for another app to use, that apparently cannot scan for fonts.I can't find them. The ones installed through 'Go Launcher Fonts' is not in /system/fonts, and I can't find any of the fonts names via Astro. Is there a font collector app of some sort that can scan through all the fonts and tell you where they are? My phone is not rooted, running a standard HTC Desire HD / Android 2.3.
