[q] gps issue cm6 rc1 - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My gps does not seem to work with any 2.2 rom whether it be rc1 or nightlies.
I have tried flashing the newest radio, wipe>re-flashing rc1 and nightlies but nothing seems to solve this issue.
Could anyone point me in the right direction to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance for any help!

By chance, are you using the Collins tweak? Because that enables CFS tweaks by default which can reprioritize GPS to not function correctly.
If not, then I recommend flashing a different kernel and seeing if you have better luck. I use Decadence's Uncapped #8 kernel, GPS works swimmingly .

Wifi problem FIXED

Ok.. so i thought this was weird.
i was having wifi problem. not being able to get connected or even see the networks on my phone.
CM6.1 and superhybrid 2.11 does not have problem its just when you flash a theme or kernel it start causing problem (FOR ME IN MY CASE, i dont know about you), and wifi eventually stops working.
currently i am running lastest radio korean version.
Whenever i flash a wild monk or other kernels on CM6.1 wifi stops working
When i flashed the stock theme that was provided on the op from superhybrid 2.1.1 the wifi stopped working.
i just thought it was weird and wanted to know if any of you guys are experiencing same problem as me.
Let me know Thanks!
I've tried a few WildMonks on CM 6.1 nightlies, and don't have any wifi problems...

which version are u using.
CM 250 nightly, and I think the WildMonks is:
2.6.35.8_AVS-925mV-CM_CFS_20101116_2329.zip
Its listed as #154 in the About Phone info (don't know why they never make the file name the same as the version info)
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I always flashed wildmonk's kernel right after i flashed CM6.1 nightlies, and my wifi is always wonky (i get a lot of errors enabling wifi and wifi tethering).
Next time I do a full wipe, i wont apply the kernel and see if that happens

Suggest a ROM for GPS and music please.

Hi!
I've been using my Galaxy S (I9000 16gb) with Darky's 10.1 and Voodoo for a couple of months and now i have flashed latest Darky's 10.2. I understand that Darky is working hard on his releases, but for several reasons i don't like 10.2 version at all.
Can you please recommend me a good fast ROM with good modem part for a GPS and latest version voodoo kernel? I constantly use GPS and listen to the music so these are the crucial parts. Or maybe just separate modem and voodoo kernel that I can flash on a Cyanogenmod for example.
Thank you!
Try doctorz rom....click on my sig.

GPS depends on region, I'm from Europe.
Also u should try newest Darkys based on JVQ cuz they wont continue JVR development.
hmm , with all the music controls on the lockscreems aamd all the optional lockscreens you get with the nexus S gps fix , I wonder why nobody has suggested my rom .
Older ROM
I've upgraded to both JVR and JVS ROMs, but always found myself going back to the JVQ ROM instead, and just flashed updated system apps, etc.
Battery life is poor on the upgrades, and not as efficient...some are quite slow.
The best (fastest and most stable) ROM I've tested is F1 SGSII ROM Faryaab V6.
The developer released v7 of this ROM (JVR), but not as good, so again downgraded.
I've tried close to 10 ROMs (JVP, JVQ, JVR, JVS), including the stock ROMs for these upgrades, but none are better.
I suggest, if there is a ROM you like, use it, then just search/browse for apps you liked from other ROMs and create your custom feel.
market doesn't work
Thank you guys! I have flashed Darky's 10.3 and now I can't download any apps from the market, it just keeps saying something like "Starting download". I experienced same thing on 10.2. What is the problem? This is ROMs fault or something is wrong with settings? Everything was working back on the 10.1.

Which version of Android Market do you have?
Some of the newer custom ROMs clash with the older version of the market for no particular reason. Do a google search for version 3.0.27, which I think is the latest for Market. Install the apk and hopefully your problems are resolved.

I had old one. Installed 3.0.27 and the problem is still there.
Try the App "GPS AIDS" (I know its a goofy name) from the market.
For some SGS users, that's all they needed to get their GPS fixed...

Thanks, there are many positive reviews for this app, I will definitely try it after I fix my market.

[Q] MiniCM7 2.1.6 compass problem

Hi
when I use compass application it shows the north cca correct, but in google maps it doesn't work properly at all, the arrow points in various directions, but just not in the right one. Other people seem to have this problem with minicm7 roms too and I am wondering, if there is still no fix or workaround about this?
No one knows?
Everything else in the ROM is working great for me, battery consumption is alright, just this one culprit
Hi!
I have the same problem on MiniCM7 2.1.6 with nAa 8.b kernel. Full wipe didn't help.
Any ideas?

I do have the exact same configuration as you, including kernel and also I did full wipe, tried changing different settings to no success.
From what I have read and as far as I can understand, it is cm7 roms problem, so full wipe or anything, what we as users can do, will not help. Devs must create some patch, imho.
looks like its a common issue with the rom!
i actually noticed its been displaced 90degrees anticlockwise!
dont know about others! but thats wat i noticed!
There is a working patch!

[Q]Microphone in apps

hi all,
i have a problem, i have a SGS I9000 with a cm9 installed and the microphone doesn't work in applications! but it works well in normal calls? how can i solve this problem? thanks
p.s. i've done a lot of wipes in my phone..
Which version of Cm9 did you install? RC2? As far as I remember this was only an issue in VERY early builds of CM9 that pawitp compiled himself.
Since you've already wiped many times, I'd say look in the DSP manager, under the WM8994 section. There are a few options for Recording presets though I am not sure if they will work much in this case.
If you're on RC2, maybe try some other kernel to see if it resolves it? If not, then flash RC2 first!
i've done what did you say....i've installed RC2 and tried a lot of kernels (semaphore, Glitch, Devil...) and the result is the same! The microphone works but only in calls! not in apps...what can i do? thanks
Nobody can help me please?

[Q] Any easy GPS lock fix for CM10 ?

Hello
I am running PA 2.51 and I am still having a no GPS lock issue, GPS is flashing and searching but it doesn't lock.
I have tried to search but haven't found anything conclusive a part of reflashing ICS which I prefer not to do.
Any one has any idea if there is an easy fix?
Not really sure.
You could try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695127
If that doesnt work just reflash you rom and do a few wipes.

Just as a data point, no issues at with GPS on CM10 here. Gets a lock within a few seconds, even including GLONASS sats (>64).
Perhaps it's a PA issue? Try a plain CM10 build to check?
