Anybody Else Having Navigation Issues? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For the past two weeks, I can't navigate, it keep saying searching for GPS. I'm on CoreDroid1.3.
I checked my friend's stock Android phone to see if hers works, it does the same thing. I'm wondering if Google is having issues in our area or what the heck?

Mine works well. Your phone only uses t-mobile's towers to get a coarse location, then refines it using satellites in SPACE. So I doubt it's google. Try running one of the myriad gps fix apps

Aren't easy fixes great?
Sent from my Glacier using XDA

Actually, when I searched and fixed the problem the first time, I used https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androidlab.gpsfix&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5hbmRyb2lkbGFiLmdwc2ZpeCJd
Because, I couldn't actually find Myriad GPS fix. The one I used spams ads. Which one are you using?

Erm...
myriad:
noun
1. a very great or indefinitely great number of persons or things.
2. ten thousand.
It's not the name of the app. I was using hyperbole to say there are a LOT of gps fix apps.

>_> Right... If I put in "GPS Fix" I get that particular one that spams ads. Do you know of one that doesn't spam?

what exactly did you develop? All i see is the adding and removing of apps...
true, your rom is no worse than any other one... but that's only because you've only taken sky raider and renamed it as your own.
You're not really building a rom when you do this, you're just modding a rom.
Why do you keep making new accounts and new threads? I'm sure if anyone wanted an update, they'd post in one of your two other threads. In any such case, we all know you're going to post it anyway so why ask? At least try to implement something that isn't available in other roms, or stop calling it your rom and start calling it what it is... sky raider mod.
I called it reFREeze for sky raider in the build.prop update

if i ever want one of my threads locked, i'll just have rrdroidhackerromflash post in my thread rather than asking a mod... seeing how he does have the magic touch
Actually, last time he was called out on this stuff, the mods came in, deleted the posts that called him out, and encouraged him to continue.
Doesn't make sense to me, but hey...what do I know?
I think Ill just stick to Skyraider and do my own customization.
I customized it more than enough

[Q] Stock ROM EVO wrong time in clock.

Sorry if this has been posted before. I have searched first for the answer (cook for TP2 so familiar w/search first). My wife's EVO (that she doesn't allow me to touch because of my WinMo obsession) is showing wrong times at random; however, the lockscreen is correct. Has anyone heard or experienced this. I am not well versed in android until now that it benefits her lol. Thanks in advance.
What time does it say right now?
Location correct?

I know some apps are not compatible with gingerbread yet, you can see that people are updating their apps on the market for compatibility with gingerbread, if you're using app2sd you might want to try to switch the app from sd to phone, I found some apps giving FC from sd, started working when I moved to the phone.
I find this topic pointless, just to file up some crap. In 1st post, almost all doesn't work and all FCs.
Later on, it becomes certain.
Few moments from now, OP will just say, oops, I didn't read that's why it didn't work.
When you say almost all, that means many. Many is more than one. You only posted one. Therefore, it is not many nor certain number.

it really bothers me that people troll XDA constantly.... get a life.
btw, moving the apps to phone like suggested above fixes the FC problems.
thank you.
Try moving the problem apps to SD or to internal memory...
Settings - Applications - Installed Apps - Select the problem app and move it...
This solves a lot of FC problems...

i also would suggest to move the apps to the internal memory.
when i had CM7 installed on my phone the most apps got moved to the sd-card, even with the install-to-internal setting in the CM-settings.
It works!
Yes! thanks, that works, awesome. i can play angry birds again : )
thanks or all informations

Why an I getting the +1 in front of my #s

I recently received my replacement MT4G after a pool accident. I reflashed and reooted S=off, new radio, the whole 9 yeards just like my previous one. I reflashed the copy of my backup that I had made prior. Everything runs great except all the number I received in SMS or calls are now showing up with a +1 in front of them so they are not matching any of my contacts. I have not made any changes to the phone.
I even went into the settings and check not to use that country code but it still is showing up. Anyone have any ideas?
Checking not to use it just means YOU don't have to do it. The phone always uses them. I don't get how yo haven't noticed that all phones have like always done that

They are not all like that. My last MT4G phone did not do this. So ther has to be some setting or something that I am missing.
i think that happened on one number of mine at some point in crack flashing, i know i quick dialed the contact (send/end), but i can't remember if it fixed it or not. worth a try i guess.

Thanks. I think I fixed it. It was in the settings under the country code option. Thing is that when you select dont use it, you also have to click the dont ask me again button and it keeps it that way. I guesss that is what I didnt know.

Just bought camera zoom fx, its definitely worth it. The only camera where the flash works properly and doesn't over saturate everything.
Also its the only camera app that works properly with the ICS ROM that I'm using

It was at the time of posting, meh its just a name change.
Instead of Android, you'll have "Google Play" referenced everywhere, another form of advertising.
