Have you check the settings under Wireless.... and Mobile Network?

I think you maybe messed up on the last part. Android have two features to pinpoint your location. One using the hardware GPS which you elaborated clearly, the other one is using wi-fi / mobile network.

For a simple test. Try run Maps and see that it start with a large radius (accuracy) then it reduced to smaller and the accuracy range decreases. The first time you fire up the Maps, it will use the readily available data which is wi-fi (based on IP) or mobile network (based on telco tower triangulation), then when the GPS lock up, it will use the latter as it is more accurate.

That is why sometime we can have GPS location while inside the building although most of the GPS hardware are struggling to get signal even PND unit.

Wifi/mobile network is not A-GPS.

When the GPS is off (manually), it will use wifi/mobile network. Anyway, I never switch off my GPS on both phones even though i did not use GPS app. The battery usage is quite minimal as long as you configure the GPS depended app schedules correctly.

Just copy it over using PC.

Nope it won't. Need to use PC and card reader if possible. The funny thing is although you rooted the Ace, you can't see what's inside .android_secure only using PC you can see it. All the apps are there.



This is for stock sdcard which running normal App2SD or Move2SD methods. Not sure about Dark Tremor App2SD method which split ur sd partition.

You can try. I have not try on Ace yet but done it on Wildfire and Desire. Anyway, nothing to lose. Can try it out although you have to do double work

Minimum Class 4. The phone is charging, you can switch it on (power button or home button) to check the status and it will stop charging when it's full.

What is your SMS settings? Particularly on "Delete old messages" and "message limit" setting.

Is your SMS stored in phone memory? How about SIM card?

The best approach to solve hang up problem is back to basic. Factory reset and run stock apps only. If the problem did not go away, then send for warranty. If it gone, some of your apps are causing it.

For Samsung Android phones, no need to root to have the fonts. Just search flipfont over the Internet, download the apk and install. Then change under Display settings.

Instead of taking out the batt, you can press and hold the power button for about 30 secs. It will reboot.

Android is different between manufacturers even the version is same. U can't interchange the ROM between em.
