I have an O2 atom life and have installed google maps on the same with the new feature of Location tracking.
it doesnt work in my phone and works on a HTC 3600/3400 whatever is the correct model.after doing some research i understand that i need to put an application unlock software for which i tired installing a cab from the SurrealNetworks website.There is still no change on the same and the google maps gives an error message"your location is temporarily unavailable"
Kindly guide me if anyone knows how to resolve this issue.
Bump this....
I'd like to know the fix as well.
without GPRS i can't use the "locate me" function
however, with the GPRS i m located in Taipei all of a sudden.
anyone got a solution for this?
I just unlocked with coke 2.31 & NFSFAN's 6.5 21864 SYS/XIP V1.00 GENERIC CARRIER ROM, did the carrier cab etc. everythings working great except I can't seem to get the GPS working. Am I not patient enough... I've tried google maps & naviComputer and it just keeps saying searching. I also ran "Turn aGPS Off" so I wouldn't have to rely on data plan.
In GPS veiwer lots of numbers etc. come up, but it won't get my location (maybe I don't know how to use this) What do I need to do yet to get GPS working?
hmm.

this thread should help you.
hey i have a question. can anyone help? i unlocked my TP2 and got the internet to work. now im trying to get the GPS and MMS to work. ive tried everything but to no avail? The TP2 is running on ATT. can anyone help? Please? Pretty Please with Michelle Rodriguez on top?
what program are you using with gps? cant help with mms, i use tom tom and it works great.
well basically i unlocked the phone to run with ATT. it was originally a US Cellular unit. And ive gotten the data to work (finally thanks to you guys.) but i have not gotten to GPS to work. is there a certain COM setting that i need or something? MMS i have not gotten to work either. Im basically trying to set the phone up to work with ATT and im not sure what settings to use for the GPS or the MMS.
You still haven't answered the basic question of what program you are trying to get the GPS working on. Google Maps and Bing typically need no configuration in order to connect to the GPS.
One simple, free troubleshooting app is Visual GPSce (just Google it). Settings for the GPS are COM4 and 4800 baud. The app should quickly start seeing satellites once the GPS settings are entered. Otherwise you have something else going on.
I had a similar problem, and Visual GPSce did the trick for me.

[TUT] Permanently enable google hangous video calls over 3g/4g/lte
[/EDIT]
It came to my attention that Google Hangouts (formerly Google Talk) video call works fine on T-Mobile network over mobile internet connection, while the same app on AT&T network works only on WiFi connection. Well, at least the TMO GS3 I got works fine over mobile network without any modifications.
The restriction can be bypassed by simply changing one entry in the database:

Unfortunately this is a temporary solution, because after phone connects to a WiFi network that entry in the database resets and you have to start over.
There is an Enable Video Chat over 3G/4G app that modifies that entry in the database, but the same as the manual method it requires reboot each time.
So, my question is does anyone know a more permanent solution for this? Perhaps fake the network type maybe?
Thank you.

I don't mind having to reboot for the special circumstances that come up when I need to video chat over cellular... but I'm wondering if the solutions you posted would apply to the Hangouts app since they are both 2 years old?
I'm hoping to find some work around soon... it's the only way I get to "see" my daughter on nights that I work late. I used to be able to initiate video calls from the Google+ app, but the recent update killed that. Would installing an older version of Google+ bring that back?
The app I mentioned as well as the manual method works fine with current version of Hangouts.
Skype and Tango voice/video chats work fine on celular network without any hacks, only Hangouts screwed.
And after reading this:

all I can say is: T-Mobile here I come and AT&T can suck it.

Man, it's really disappointing that their is no "My3G" or any other apps that fakes WiFi signal.
Sure, there isn't much of application that requires that, but when they do, it becomes a must to resolve the issue,
such as: Hangout over AT&T 3g network, and downloading games with large files
it looks to me Google are more and more like MS these days

Anyone with sprint having visual voicemail issues?
It seems they FINALLY released an app in the app store for unlocked models! yay!!! but it doesn't work. It hangs trying to activate like the manual apk install ones lol.
It will ONLY show in play store if you are on unlocked model and search for sprint visual voicemail. It has 0 reviews.
So I cross flashed my phone to Sprint FW as I wanted Calling Plus anyway so figure that will get me VM and ha, nope. So that one doens't do activation error it just never tells you that a voicemail came.
If you try to change any settings like advertisement options it times out talking to the server it claims.
So either me trying the new one first broke something on my account.
Activating an unlocked one broke something on the account (many times on activation they blow features away and re-add etc.)
Some other random issue.
I spent 2 hours on phone with sprint and they couldn't fix. They didn't ask about unlocked vs branded phone and I didn't really want to bring up I cross flashed and it worked in the past but who knows what it could be.
They sent a tkt in to a 3rd level I get to wait to hear back.
Anyone else having VM notification issues with sprint on locked or unlocked? Have you tried the app if you are unlocked or cross flashed and had luck?
I have an unlocked version on Sprint as well but I can't find the Visual Voicemail App in the play store. Is there any way you can link it? I can try it out and report back.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sprint.vvm
But do it from phone. On PC it says not avil in my country oddly. I also can't find it searching, it seems to only show up if your model is the unlocked one as since I flashed my phone to sprint now it doesn't show in search just my library from when I tried before flashing.
I tell you sprint is pissing me off though. VVM still not working and even flashed premium caller ID doesn't work. It fails to activate. On sprint side it knows it's unlocked device still so it restricts things out still it seems.
Basically only thing I have gained is calling plus (fake VoLTE).
Hmm I can't even download through my phone over LTE. It does the same thing "not available in this country" and "Item not found" in the play store. Very weird!
I got mine through Sprint, and VVM works fine.
Would love the answer to this been waiting months. The app store says this is not compatible with my model (so plus)
