I recently flashed the ICS leak, build # 6.7.2233_DBN_M4-3 and my Google Nav app nor any app that uses navigation works. The map will work, and it will find my location based on 3g/4g, but it will continually say "Searching for GPS" and hang. Any ideas?
Not sure...I've been on 2233 since it was leaked and Google Maps Navigation followed me perfectly from Melbourne, FL to Isle of Palms, SC and back.
My gps signal also locks on pretty fast...before it would do it once in a while but on ics it locks on in one second every time Mine actually working faster and better if not the same. Just try uninstall and redownload.. If u haven't already..

Maybe instead of using the old leak try 232. I have yet to have any issues with anything i have used so far on that one.
Mine keeps losing GPS signal, then will come back about 30 seconds later. Not really good when you're trying to get thru D.C.
Oh, I'm on .230. Probably gonna flash .232 later and test it out.

Worked perfect for me on 2233, 230 and 232... in fact, just used it 2 days in a row for 4hrs straight each day... no drops.
I actually was having problems during my last couple of weeks using 905 GB. Gps was not accurate showing me driving through a field most of the time. Ive use 2233, 230, and 232 with great success. Even love the new voice.

That's odd, mine works perfectly fine and everything is just smoother.
I have noticed a little lag actually, mainly when opening an apps page... Hopefully this will be resolved soon.
Mine was lagging on the first day. Been fast today though. I think it's just their Market database refreshing the caches located worldwide to include 2.2 in the filter rules. (The rules that determine whether an app shows up in your device)

Yeah, I just checked and I think it was just a temporary thing, things seem to be up to par now.
I was having the same problem...
Fixed by going to settings->privacy then unchecking both checkboxes (first the second the the first, as just the first didn't fix it for me)..
I think it's that it's trying to restore an app no longer available and that's what's using all the resources?
works!

Can you be more specific when you say updated radio. the froyo updatw till put you on 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7 - so I assume you mean downgrading the radio rather than updating? Or did you reflash the new radio version afetr flashing froyo. This info could be useful to many experiencing problems with froyo

Hmm my market is still unbearbly slow. I have just given up using it now until official froyo is out. No great loss as it means I don't have to wade through the masses of chinese girl porn in there.
Hello, I have a nexus one with cm6 on it and I noticed when I put it in the dock the weather says currently unavailable. But if I just open the apologize it works just fine. I don't know what would be causing this but I just wanted to see if anyone else was having this problem.

Yeah, it does happen sometimes. I've had it happen but not all the time. Sometimes it shows me data from a while back as I have it set to update based on location. When i was in DC it updated but after coming back to NYC and playing around it still showed me DCs data instead of currently (already refreshed) NYC/CT data.
It's a rather an annoying problem that happens with me too since the pre-releases of froyo..
It happens to me every night. But other wise it update the weather section just fine. I didn't notice this in previous builds. Maybe later ill put rc1 or 3 back on my nexus one and see if its the same or not. I'm thinking it isn't.

gps has worked well for me. not the best I have ever had but not bad. Try different modem/kerne
I use the evo 4g with sprint. Im running miui 1.4.29 and everything is working fine. The gps is flakey, i use the telenav and it seems to stall. App loads i enter the address and it keeps searching for gps, then it fails and i hit retry and then it loads the route, but it doesnt move like as if it lost signal. Anyone can help?
gps works awesome for me. you need to just find the right modem kernel combo and i think you'd be surprised.
I'm having GPS issues since rooting and ROM-ing RD-MIUI-2.4.13_ICS-EN-DESIRE HD.
Using Google Navigation, I get a GPS lock on straight away but after about 5 minutes, it just keeps searching for GPS. Is there a way of installing the stock GPS Radio only?
so here's the story. I've never been able to get a GPS lock with my captivate. I didn't try the GPS when I was originally on stock so i'm not sure if it ever worked. I'm currently on cm7 and when I turn GPS on and go to maps or GPS test the GPS icon comes up in the status bar but just continuously blinks.I've flashed back to stock with Odin and got nothing while on stock either. it won't find even a single satellite. I've tried a dozen different modems to no avail and a bunch of GPS fixes and GPS aids. Has anyone had a similar problem? I've looked high and low for a fix for this thing. Got any ideas i'm up for trying anything right about now.

You shouldn't have a problem with a phone that new. I believe any phones built or refurbished after last November have working GPS. I'd recommend flashing back to stock and hitting an AT&T device center.

Even, though I've had my phone replaced over this summer I've still had horrible gps with most roms. But from this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16306082#post16306082 , I've had absolutely fantastic results. It's extremely simple too. Just copy and past in /system/etc and replace the original gps.conf that's there. Try this first. Hope it helps

Does it work on I897 roms or just I9000 ports?
I don't think it matters. I've used it with both. All have the same gps.conf file

Yeah. I just finished setting up again after flashing. I've noticed a few back end things that didn't work before now seem to be working. For instance, before if I did a check for update it would say check for system update is not available. Now I get the usual no update necessary message. Other than that it seems the same.

Honestly, there's not much difference and if you're happy on 2233, I'd stay there. I'll continue to flash each new leak out of curiosity. A final build should be appearing in the next few weeks, because Motorola has early Q3 as there expected release which only gives them until mid-August at the latest to finalize, test, and gain approval for the update.
I wonder if there will be any differences in the official ICS release and the leaked .2233? Honestly i havent found anything wrong with 2233 yet aside from recovering a nandroid backup of it.

Mostly the issues I have found include things in Motoblur apps or backend stuff (such as the missing System Updates I mentioned earlier, Social Gallery not allowing you to add accounts, and the Device Setup wizard force closes after the initial run through), and I believe some of this stuff has been purposely disabled for these "test" builds. I also think HDCP has yet to be enabled, as running Hulu Plus in webtop mode gave me a black screen that said HDMI output has been disabled. Two of those four things are now fixed in 229, and I'm going to test Hulu Plus in about an hour. It is very close to being a done deal for sure. I would expect a new leak or two in the next two weeks with all these issues ironed out, followed shortly by news of a soak test in late-July, and a final release the first week of August. But that's all speculation on my part.

Did you try after a factory reset on 2233? Mine were there and working when upgraded from 905, but I did a factory reset and then it kept trying to add but gave me an error that read something along the lines of this has been disabled for this account. It works fine on 229.

I haven't noticed a lot of changes either, overall since all i noticed was the updated kernel and lower os resource usage.
I havent had to do a factory reset yet, and wont do it unless i have to... i am so tired of re-installing my apps and reorganizing the home screens.... lol

Not sure why, but after flashing to .902 and updating several times on .2233, I went back to .902 to get this new leak on, and promptly got stuck on the dual core logo. I reflashed .902 -- it went perfectly both times -- but got stuck on the big red dot again. Left it alone for almost three hours, and all it did was kill my battery.
Any idea why the exact same .902 file and procedure that I used many times before would suddenly decide to crap out on me?
Can I just flash this update over the 2233 or do I have to go back to 905 first?
I believe you have to go back to .905 first, but i could be wrong... i havent tried it yet.

Yes you have to go back to .902 first. Just like moving to .2231 or 33.
