Please help me with my GPS

Hi you guys...
I decided to post this because im a little bit tired and worried about some weird bug on my N1's (at&t version, currently being used on Honduras, Central America) gps...
Heres the story...
When i used CM5.X it was pretty accurate, inside and outside of any bulding, then Froyo was released, so I made a nand backup and proceed to flash FRF50 on it... since then, my gps isnt accurate anymore... i tried everything, going back to my nand, with 4.06 and 4.03 radios, wiping (like 25 times), flashing the new 5.08 radio, ive tried unticking the "use wireless networks" on the options... installing maps brut and nothing seems to work...
Here is a little cap for you:

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The lack is not that much, but its pretty anoying because originally it wasnt like that.
some thing that ive noticed is that since CM6RC1, my weather app is more accurate, because before it used to pick another location to broadcast... (one town that is located nearby my city...)
I hope you have an answer for me!
thnx you guys!

I am using v2.2 N1. I don't have any problem as you stated.
BTW, how can I replace a build-in battery icon on the status bar to number in %
I have tried many many battery widget or software. It seems no-one can replace the build-in battery icon like you did.

Anybody? Please help!

I just made some tests, heres what i got:
Using GPS estatus Market app:
14.76991°N : 88.78649°O
Using maps.google.com Manually locating and focusing where i am right now:
14.769786 : -88.786397
Using maps.google.com (Manually locating and focusing where android's google maps app locates me:
14.769918 : -88.786515
Any ideas?

Android OS consuming battery

So, recently, my battery life has gone to ****...mostly due to Android OS. I'm running MonsterRom 1.2. I just SBF'd the phone clean yesterday and restored apps via MyBackUp Root and TB. I made sure not to use a hand backup because I figured that would restore system settings causing the issue to re-surface. Any help would be much appreciated.
EDIT: I understand that this isn't a drained battery, but the volume of use remains proportional when the phone is nearly dead.

Me too
I've also had a similar problem on both copies of the droid 3 I own. Can't seem to find the answer. Anyone had any luck out there?

Looking into it further
There is a great thread here.
I installed betterbatterystats and turned off syncing for instant upload and Google Docs to see if that would help. Also, com.motorola.blur.service.sync.engine.wakelock.task seems to be a possible culprit on the wakelock side of things. It would be nice if we could put this problem to bed. Besides this and not being able to receive SMS with images in it (I think it's something to do with my provider, Koodo), I love this phone.

Assuming that the phone is rooted, download a app called battery calibration from the market, charge your battery to 100 percent or 4200mah,give the app root access and tap calibrate. You should be good. When changing roms it is important to calibrate your battery. Also you can do the same thing by booting to cwm recovery and erasing battery stats.

Possible progress here
Removing the calendar widget, docs sync, facebook sync and instant update seem to have made a significant improvement over the last couple of hours. I will update as I get more data.
I should note that I'm on .890, I have rooted and debloated except for blur (I want the calendar app unless someone else can suggest a better one), motoprint and task manager.

Battery Drain because of Media?

For me, the battery is drained by media and Google services. The Google services is understandable, i use Google Now and services like that, and I don't mind it. But the media is a mystery. I tried formatting my data partition, even reflashing the ROM but to no avail.
Anyway, I tried using other FWs, but the same thing happens. I have no idea why though... Any one having the same problem or knowing the solution? Please help, thanks!

Mediaserver (Media) is the service that handles all pictures, videos, musics in your device, including finding the files so they appear in your album/walkman and providing the file when you're trying to view them.
If you listen to music or see videos or pictures, it's normal that it will take some battery away

dude i have the same problem with battry drain my mobile battry dead in 7 hours 52 min in genral use like whatsapping, massagng and spme time facebook and i have 2g network. i dont know why this battry drains so faster earlier ihave xpeia sola and it stay near 11-12 hours appox with 3g network

i am also having this kind of problem.
battery backup is not upto the mark.
mediaserver takes around 20%battery and google services also takes large amount

Hey all! I think I found a fix (by messing around).
Go to titanium backup, and freeze media storage.
That solved the problem for me
However, you have to unfreeze it to take screen shots.

For Google services, I turned off location reporting and disabled GPS to save battery.
Now my batt goes at 0.5% per hour

I've turn off GPS and even in apps turn of request for location . After that i saw that was so low . I turn off synchr. without gmail . Was better but still too much..
I read in reddit that google app service is normal. But others apps request information and data from google so google app service is working and use battery. So after that I uninstall all apps that i do not use it. Apps that i cannot uninstall just turn off it. For now i charge to full battery and watching resoults .

I had the same issue and found out it was two of my apps - MicroG and a VPN app. When I use VPN on mobile data, battery usage reads it as Google Play Services instead of the VPN app. Same goes for MicroG using a hell lot of background data and logging as Google Play Services. Another is Messenger app - I included it in restricted apps in battery management to reduce usage. Now I'm getting normal battery life.

How can I disappear the High Performace Mode icon from the notification bar?

Hi guys! I am using my phone with high performance mode enabled. I don't want to turn this off.
But because of this, a battery icon with speedometer is constantly visible in the notification bar.
How can I disable this?
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Galaxy Store, Good Lock family of apps, Quickstar. Clean up that horrible bright white too.

It's works! Thank you very much!

You're welcome. It's a cool apk that uses almost no power.
This is one reason you buy Samsung, customization. Hundreds of free themes and icon packs too. The stock launcher is faster, more stable and efficient than any of the 3rd party ones... plus very customizable.
iPhones are such plain Jane's

Yes, you are right. Anyway, I solve most of the customization with gravitybox and firefds modules, since I have root.
A little plus information for EU users: The Good Luck app is not available in the Galaxy Store due to region restrictions.
If you still install the apk from elsewhere (eg. apkmirror), it will display an error message after start.
The solution: install a free vpn app (eg. protonvpn), remove the sim card from your phone, force shutdown and delete data + clear cache in the galaxy store app (+ and if you have already installed it in the Good Luck app), set up a vpn connection via wifi to make the connection target US.
Launch the Galaxy Store and now you can find Good Luck and use it!
