what you did?

Before this, after you got speedmod, go to recovery, then select choose from zip, then select darkky's rom

all i did was enable tweaks.... then i cant seem to use the 3button combo anymore...

each time i use the 3 button .... it just loop the I9000 Galaxy S ui ...... if i let it go.... it will just boot up the phone..

i'm using epic lockscreen also, but no such delay. usually, the delay kicks in when i unlock my phone right after i lock it. seems to be smoother with tweaks on. maybe you installed too many apps?  tongue.gif

should be your network connection prob. signal low perhaps?

hard to say if it's safe or not, since there are viruses lurking in android platform due to cracked versions. but a lot are using cracked apps, so should be okay la
try doing the same thing, see if it the same prob occurs again or not
*
Yea... i do the samething 3 times liew.... still come back to that boot screen..


now i select no, remove the new config .... then it boot my screen back to normal....


i check the settings .. it says Speedmod .....


While theres the darky theme .... Theres no more the darky stuff liew .... everything looks like the old SGS ... no 3D menu etc..

Try "No,enter recovery mode",
then go to advanced Speedmod ULK features
The LAGFIX options

Type out what's written bellow, should be something like this

Current Configuration is:
bla bla bla....

Then choose Enable lagfix Convert Data to Ext4
After you select that, go back out then press reboot system.

Then it will pop back up the same menu, then choose

"Yes, with backup and restore"

oh damn ... i adi chose another settings ..


Damn .. i want the darky stuff... the 3D menu ...


Is the speedmod suppose to give u that old menu and UI?

Realy OMFG WTF Babi KILL this time.....


I cannot believe changing a ROM and applying some speedmod make so much Differences...



The GPS seems very different from before .... The custom ROM able to Lock on in less than 30sec COLD START + INDOOR (at my room upstairs) ... I've rebooted so many times just to make sure this is not a 1 time miracle thing thumbup.gif [Accuracy 10meters or so ... fluctuates but so far no more than 15meters]

I never get a lock or have to wait extremely long to get a lock @ my room when i was using the stock firmware.


However, i still cant get a lock downstairs with the new ROM .... and i never tested it on the road yet... so im not sure how well this GPS would work...



Speed wise.... Definately much faster ..... Loading document pages etc... other than that .... kinda hard to differentiate..




hmm.. i guess thats about it .....


But definately look much better now.... the animation the screen..... at least it doesnt look like iphone .... DAMN i hated the touchwiz

Glad to hear you got your problem solve..  thumbup.gif

So V13 no more seeing you come here rant about GPS issue again, I hope..... tongue.gif

Nope.... ive tested GPS just now on the road...


I now officialy gave up one SGS GPS .....



I tested it from Sunway all the way up to KL ... from Jalan tun razak to KLCC to SG wang ....


It never get a LOCK at all ....



I dont get it .... at my room ... it can lock in less than 30 sec..... but just now ive tested it is totaly unusable...




Thats the thing i wanted to ask u ICH78 ... Since you say u got no GPS problem ...


Have you realy tested it ON THE ROAD??? KL area etc.....

Of course if based on my test @ my room ... the GPS looks like it doesnt have any problem at all.... but on the road.... doh.gif


Since we uses the same firmware + same kernal and everything .... my guess is you never tried it beyond ur comfort area ... whistling.gif

I mostly use GPS on the road. Jln Tun Razak is my most use road in fact, every weekdays I need to commute there.

Are you using Papago!X5? There is a problem with Papago, sometimes it cannot initiate the GPS on SGS. When u minimize papago, you'll notice that the GPS icon on the notification bar is not there. Not sure why, maybe the app itself. That is why you'll see the satellite in papago blinking all the time.

If I use Waze or Aura or googlemap, the GPS initiates instantly.

No... i use GPS Status to try to get a lock ....


It cant lock at all ..... shocking.gif


i dont understand why it able to lock at my room no problem ... in less than 30 sec with accuracy 10-15meter......


But just now... drive whole way through ... cant lock ... not even once.... and ive even tried Reboot over and over...

Are you trying to lock GPS while on the move or static? GPS locking is poor when you are moving at speed. Have you tried to lock it during static before you drive?
Your results correspond with mine.  thumbup.gif

both .... cause i stop to pay toll and stuff... and mostly jam all the way..


Eh... another strange thing ... i cant even lock at my room now .. WTF O_O .... took me 250sec to lock ..

Why the GPS acting so damn strange .....



It worked so well yesterday and the day before ...


There must be something that would trigger the GPS to act this way.... i trying to find out now,,

I do recall once I can't get a lock on GPS when I was on the way back from KLCC using Jln Tun Razak. It was raining damn heavy that time.

What I did was, I exit Papago, wait 5 min, restart Papago and it can lock within 5 sec.

Oh damn ... Ive just found out something .....


i think im gonna run a few more test 1st .. just to be sure....

Oh damn .....


OH DAMN!!!


Now i know Whats the problem with my GALAXY S...




Let me ask u some question Ich78 .. just to ensure my theory applies to other galaxy S as well...


1. How long do you need to get a LOCK (cold start)
2. Do you have an internet connection?? (Wifi/3G) most of the time...

so what's ur theory?? having internet connection messes up GPS or internet connection in the beginning helps u lock faster


Added on January 22, 2011, 9:50 am
wipe version means ur phone will be like how u get it when it's new. all those apps u installed previously and data and settings will be gone for good.
what do u mean by apps like eclair version?
*
have to wait for ICH78 to reply me 1st before i can conclude something...



if you could tell me your

1. How long do you need to get a LOCK (cold start)
2. Do you have an internet connection?? (Wifi/3G) most of the time...


it would be helpful too

What is the problem you found?

Ok ive tested this thoroughly but im not sure if this applies to others SGS

The reason i got a lock in less than 30second EVEN @ indoors is due to an active internet connection

Ive conducted a series of test on my phone and here is the result


GPS Enable Wifi Disable - Lock time >100 sec.... Most of the time it did not lock at all and the amount of satalite found was around 1 to 2...

GPS Enable Wifi Enable - Lock time <30sec ....

GPS Enable Wifi Disable 3G Enable - Same as Wifi enable...


Note :
1. I've conducted these test using GPS Status and TestLab
2. the "Use Wireless Network" was disable at all times throughout the test
3. All test was conducted with constant "Switch OFF" to ensure that it is not cause by the cache from previous test (I've found that REBOOT doesn't realy enable COLD start)

Other reasons that might support my test:
1. When i was driving around yesterday to test the GPS ... there wasn't any active internet connection .....
2. Previously after flashing Darky's ROM ... my wifi was on all the time when i tested the GPS .....



I havent tested out to see how it works outdoors or on the road with Internet connection... so im not sure how far this hypothesis is true...
