Full screen GPS - HTC Jetstream

Just an update for those who are looking for a full screen GPS Navigation.
Successfully tested 2 app's which run perfectly:
1. Sygic GPS Navigation 11.0.2
2. Waze
Both are great & support multi language and real time traffic info. & alerts.
As for IGO8 , it does come up but not full screen, only partial, i guess its a screen resultion theme issue which IGO8 does not support yet.
Anyone managed to have IGO8 on full screen ?

[Q] GPS problem - Jikantaru ROM

Hi, i'm trying to fix this case for few days.
There's Jikantaru XE ROM on my WS - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314430.
Everything works perfectly except GPS.
There is no any icon on notification bar. Of course iGo or Google Navigation is working.
I tried to turn on the GPS with settings=>location=>use GPS.. and with shortcut in notification bar. No response.
I installed GPSFix and after 15min fixing there's no response as well.
Anyone knows what's wrong?
I think updating recovery solved the problem.
Is it possible?

GPS settings in ICS

There has been much discussion on the GB ROM about GPS signal going in and out when using Maps. I'm now on ICS (NRG ROM) and it takes about 5 minutes to lock for me, and sometimes when i'm driving the GPS signal will loose the lock and can take some time to get it back.
People have suggested to disable the Filter GPS speed and the sensor filtering settings in GPS status app. What's everyone's thoughts? What's the best configuration?

[Q&A] iGO Primo in background?

Hi there,
Is there a way to run iGO Primo in the background with screen off?
I want to be able to lock the screen, put the phone in my pocket and just listen to the vocal instructions. At the moment iGO gets suspended after ~ 1 hour. When I unlock the phone and click the iGO icon in the notifications page, it restarts.
I tried some settings in [power] section of the sys.ini but with no luck. I also tried an app to keep the GPS module alive, nog (although I think iGO should have complained about 'gps sigmal lost').
Any clues, please?
Thank you
Problem solved.
It was the deep sleep mode that was choking iGO after a while.
Not for all...
Not so fast... In devices such 2din "pure" android, when the iGO goes to background (eg. by pressing the home button or at BT phone call), then you'll listen: "GPS signal lost..."
And "bye bye" speedcam alerts...
Any clue?
not bye bye ......

Keep Mate 10 Screen on by Motion?

I'm used to having my Android phones use apps like KinScreen or Gravity Screen to keep my screen on by motion. On my new Mate 10 (ALP-L29 8.0.0.119 (C636) I'm finding that no matter what I do, the phone's setting for display on time always control, even though I've excepted out both apps from battery optimization and from automatic control of their launch (manually set to run in the background). Anyone experience the same issue or have any thoughts? I don't know if this is an Oreo problem or a Miui one. Thx.
I am having the same issues, no matter what, with persistent notification active, the screen does not stay awake with kinscreen. Installed Wakey, seems to be working at least sometimes... Should be based on your eyes watching the screen...
According to TecTiq, the maker of KinScreen, it's a Miui problem. I'm not the only one to report it. Oh well....
One other possibility is to set your default screen timeout to something long, and then install Proximity Service, which seems to work well on the Mate 10 and turns on and off your screen by covering the proximity sensor. Creates a permanent notification, but installing AutoNotification cures that (as well as the other running notifications, like background Android processes, that you don't want).
EDIT: Nope, belay that! Once the phone sleeps, Proximity Service is still killed (even if excepted from Launch and Battery Optimization). Back to the drawing board....

Huh? Pace always have AlwaysOnDisplay, what are you taking about? If you get a black screen while screen is locked and you are using a custom APK watchface then you need to uninstall the current version, restart the device and seek for a new version that also works with Stratos firmware 2.3.7.0+, older APKs don't work anymore....
Calories are now much more accurate on my cycle

I think some of them exists in older roms already. ?
How do you disable the sport autostart ? Every time, as I am returning from walking the dog, I get a message saying I have started a walk - about 30 mins after it started
From some other thread:
lfom said:
Latest firmwares for all watches (Pace/Stratos/Verge) introduced "Activity reminders" (also called Sports reminders on Verge) that are supposed to auto-start and auto-stop recording activities, but they have a bug (besides the fact that I don't think they actually work as of now): even if both are disabled by default you must enable and then disable both options in watch Settings -> General or your activity most probably will miss the first initial and final minutes of GPS data. Simply enable both, quit settings then go back and disable them again and it should be fine.

Finally, Thai language support, but it renders text incorrectly in standby screen as it doesn't render upper and lower character, for example, words like "หู้" will be rendered as "ห" in standby screen, but it will be rendered correctly in active screen. Also, its Thai font is too wide.
Do you think that this update is useful?
gps not working
gps is not working after the update for me, did a factory reset but still not working
Apk watchfaces not working correctly with this new rom.

Same with my elliptic. Went from around 100-130 for an intensive 30-min session to around 420-440, about the same as what the machine actually gives.

Old APK watchfaces should be updated to work with newer firmware (for both Pace and Stratos), check if the developer released a new version.
