I installed Google Goggles from the Martket the other day.
Its loads but after going through the first couple of screens it disappears (I guess it minimizes as i dont get any force close message).
Is anyone else having the same issue or is it working for you?
Same issue here im afraid.

It also happened to me, it worked fine until I upgraded it
Same here too.
It was working on mine originally but since I updated something it now fails as you describe.
I was messing about using it with a USB camera which worked fine btw.
I posted about this on Modaco and some ignorant tw**t posted a sarcy reply about why would I want to use it anyway with a front facing camera
Probably doesn't work unless you have a fake location set (like Google Earth).
Tried with fake my location running still not working!
Hey everyone,
I'm new to this site but I've been tinkering with my DX for a few months now. I hope you guys can help me solve something.
No matter what I do, I can't get the nav to go into night mode at night. I've tried uninstalling updates and installing again. No luck. I've been having this issue since I was on 588. Does anyone know how this can be fixed? It's very frustrating to have a bright light on your face when you drive. This was never an issue in froyo I don't want to go back to it but I might if this can't be resolved.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Hi, I use my GPS frequently on my Note 4 but ever since I updated my phone to 5.1.1 it will not lock on to my location.
It will give directions, but the pointer does not move and it has a big light blue circle around, and when it does move, it goes all over the place.
When I did my update, my phone did a factory reset, so I know that wont fix the issue.
Here's a pic of what I always see even during naviataion: http://i.imgur.com/nBgUCaj.png
I'm almost giving up on this to the point of where I want to get a new phone, that's one feature I can't live without.
Any ideas of how to fix this?
Thanks everyone.
I had terrible fix issues with my GPS. I switched from wanamlite rom to sweet rom, now my GPS works again!
Hi there my GPS was very quick under Kitkat with immediate fix and perfect compass. Under Stock Lollipop it still worked well enough. Since I use [5.0.2][D802] Google Edition 1.5 my compass doesn't work anymore and GPS doesn't fix at all or takes 10 minutes shows wrong location and looses signal again
I don't know whether the problem is the ROM or that my phone fell down hundreds of times.
Anyway I already tried the apps fasterGPS, gpsStatus and TopNTP without success and did the cardboard mod hardware wise.
Please help I want to play Pokemon Go
Hello,
Every time i am driving my car i am using Blitzer for speed cameras and Amigo for warnings on the speed limit. Since i updated the S10+ with Android 11 i have noticed that as soon the display goes dark, both apps stop working. With this, i mean they both lose GPS connection so i do not receive any warning. Did not have any problem before the update, now i do not know what to do. I've tried everything. They are both NOT battery optimized, with all permissions granted, an still nothing works. What is worse is that even the GPS connection is not so stable as before. It takes a lot more time to get a GPS signal although i did not change any setting.
Does anyone had the same problems?
Thanks in advance!
Later edit
So, for those interested, i have solved the problem for both apps.
For Amigo (by TomTom) the solution i have found it was switching the Location permission from "Only when it's in use" to app to "Always". It started working again in the background.
For Blitzer.de i have the solution by accident. The culprit was a Bixby routine that was suppose to start the app as soon as it was connecting to my car's bluetooth.
As soon as i started the app manually everything started to work again in the background.
I would like to point out again that both apps were working just fine until i have updated to Android 11.
Hope that my findings will help also someone else having similar problems.
Happy Easter !
