Get a faster fix with gps - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hello,
i just found a list of pool servers for your GPS.
Just download the FasterFix app here
Next go to this page and select your zone. Then look for your country and remember the server address.
Next start the FasterFix app on your Galaxy S and select custom. Then enter the server address.
Done!
Now you should get a faster fix.
Comments are welcome!

Thank-you for this original information.

Should I enter the server address for the country or one of the various addresses available inside it? Or even the address for the whole region?

Faster fix and select your zone /country .

Just the server address after the country name. For me it's :
de.pool.ntp.org
Don't need to add server 1... or like that.

App for automatically toggle between IP Manager settings?

Does anyone know of an app or a way to toggle between different IP Manager profiles?
I am trying to address a problem with my Desire that I've had since the Froyo update which means I have to use a static IP address in one location & dynamic everywhere else.
Thanks in advance.

Thx but it's not quite what I'm looking for. I can't see how to switch back to dynamic IP or how to set conditions. IP Manager already lets me set different IP addresses.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Any suggestions?
I'd settle for something that can automatically switch between a static and a dynamic IP address.

did you try the app?
When no profile has been saved for one spot, it get its IP by DHCP
Profiles are only set for static parameters...

Hi quesseb - sorry but I'm not sure what you mean. What app are you referring to?
Thx.

I used wifi static as mentioned.
It detects a known network and switches to the relevant static IP. And of course there is no profile for it to remember when you use DHCP
No problem folks. I switched to Locale with the IP address plug. That did the trick. I can now switch between IP addresses based on location or WiFi connection. Handy simple & it just works.

Are you trying to enter the pop and imap settings? Only use the pop and smtp settings...not the imap.
When my school went to live I set mine up with exchange. I emailed the I.T. people and they told me what I needed

Change dns setting of mobile network of an unrooted device

Hi!
I have some of the sites restricted with default dns setting on mobile network. I set Google dns on my adsl modem at home so I don't have any problem when I am using wifi at home. I would like to change my mobile network too.
I was changing easily on my HTC Himalaya on windows mobile 6 years ago:-(

You can change it in advanced settings in wifi config. This is a global setting though so effects all networks.
If you want network specific dns, dl "wifi static" from the market.
Edit: ok ignore me. On 3g networks I'm not sure

[Q] wpa_supplicant.conf

I have read dozens of articles on android wifi wpa_supplicant.conf and they all indicate the password is shown in the string starting with psk. My phone psk string reads something like psk =1373d41ea5a98e7a404ab6cd99 which would lead me to believe it is hex however when I put the string on a hex to ascii converter the converted password does not match the ascii wifi password entered. The wifi logs into router without a problem. What am I doing wrong when reading the psk string?
That looks like a hash representation of your password. You probably need a specific pwhash /salt decrypter

I do not know the key or encryption method so I am basically out of luck on retrieving the passwords I do not know. Thanks for the information.
If you need the password I'd suggest looking into a Python app called wifyte, you can use it to run a wps pin brute force campaign against most routers. It does take ten hrs or so though.
