TY, and so I was NOT hearing voices - cause our in-house psychiatrist would loved to note it, LOL.

I used the same lengthy steps in setting up new ROM per recommendation and Nav/Map running with Car Mode had been perfect on CS's CM7 V10 and V11, and Gas Buddy popped up nicely as I'm driving alone with a quick shortcut tap. I've seen the occassional slow transition/exiting, but never reboot - and this is the FIRST time I ended up hearing 2 different voices - LOL. And, I thought I was freaking out except DW was riding along and noticed it, and yeah, it was more natural & spoke at a somewhat slower pace. It was late night & I'm buzzing along a lonely, secondary county road with poor lighting & signage and was counting on Google Map to get me there. I knew it froze, FC and wasn't responsive and probably tried to restart it & re-started the destination - maybe that explained 2 parallel "tracking" & directions - but 2 different voices or announcements about turns, etc. It was just nuts ....

Shed's GSB and CS's CM7 latest releases are my top tier ROMs for the Eris, and over the several days - I'll try to do another full SD wipe, etc. etc. and clean install from scratch, won't even bother with Titanium BU/Restore - it's a PITA and time consuming. But, I'm confident that both (and other) developers put their best efforts in fixing & resolving most if not all of the issues already - this puzzled me & I'm leaning toward issues with the Google Map 3.6 build, there're problems with 3.5 which I somehow managed to avoid but now I'm running into issues. The Andorid Market comments are full of user feedbacks about how buggy things had become.

Something else that I noticed is with the phone on standby, some of the background apps that access GPS apparently caused it to freeze - resulting in faster battery drain & the phone itself getting warm/hot - and bringing it out of standby, I get the notice about the app, wait or FC.
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
I've also noticed the phone getting hot, very hot, using gps apps. Also, when I was having reboots using navigation on gsb35, I tried mapquest app. It had the same problem, so if it's not an eris specific problem, and not confined to google's app, then is it more broad android flaw? By the way, for the record, navigation still working flawlessly for me. Real test will be vacation next week...
[Droid Eris Android Development] Stagnation1:
Anyone else having issues with wireless tether? I can enable it but wireless devices cannot see it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I haven't really tried it honestly but I will this evening.

Sorry guys.. been really busy trying to work on some other ROMs as well and getting ready to leave Thursday for vacation along with finish up redoing the porch before I go so the dog can stay there lol.

Thanks for the great write-up and reviews LetItRide and klobkelosh. You guys rock :). I'm planning to put out a little update before I go away for this and my Inc ROM and I'm also working on a retro for the Eris ;) that probably won't be ready before I leave though.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Letitride:
Yeah, do prioritize and take care of one's own matters first.

Debating on whether to NAND restore back to V11 first, skip V12 & await the next update, minor or otherwise until the CM team & Google figure out what's going with Maps/Navigation - it was working nearly perfect for me and as end user, I can probably "live" without the enhancement on V12, LOL.

I did switched back again to GSB V3.6.odex ROM on a different SD card, which was reformatted, wiped & set up my usually & long PITA way, just to be as clean as possible. Default settings on Shed's ROM, flashed the newest Gapps and also C2C after it was initially set up - and install all of the Google Apps freshly + a partial Tatanium Restore some of my apps only. Just like CM7.V12 ROM, it was smooth & responsive - everything worked as intended, except again - problems with Navigation & Map, rebooted by itself at least once while I was driving, and other times, it simply FC & froze with the prompt + "Searching for GPS Signal ...." Yet, even after exiting or closing the app, the Blue NAV icon stayed on the Status Bar but appeared to resume working, partially .... That explained the battery getting warm, almost hot to the touch and draining power fast - it somehow managed to kept my Map Quest app open in the background after I exited.

Anyway, I've pulled that SD card, prep a different SD card with a full wipe/cache & dalvik wiping - and NAND Restore + doing a Reflash of the ROM & Gapps, and it's been okay this morning on quick GPS functionality. The real test will be later this evening/tonight as I will on the road for 2+ hours, and will report back & share on how NAV & Map are working - before I rollback to V11.

Stay tuned.

OP updated with V13 Vanilla. I'll post the stripped version later today. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
hey bro ,, i think i have the gps issue fixed.. i had it tested on a 2 hour trip yesterday with no issues ill let u know,, i put a test in my thread just waitin to see if anyone else has the same results
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Updates for Vanilla and Stripped are in OP. Hopefully there's no issues while I'm away. I will try to check in when I have service though :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] chlila:
Everything is running smoothly. Always love your work!
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
Well said. I tried a number of experiments while on vacation. last week. I actually got navigation to work uninterrupted for 45 minutes after changing the google maps cache settings to prefetch map data while not on wifi.but, in the end, navigation display locked up but voice continued. Oh well...

Just updated to v13sth today. so far so smooth. Oh, and noticed that miui v17 camera no longer force closes on double tap...not sure of that was cm, cs, or mh, but thanks to all. Now if only nav would work, this might be perfect
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Would this work? http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14534313&postcount=2478 I haven't tried it yet.
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
One way to find out...also a few on shred's thread are testing, so I'm waiting to see their results before diving in. thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Letitride:
I switched to Shed's latest non-odex 3.7 ROM last night from scratch with a different blank SD card, everything else "essential" being stable and I flashed the GPS fix - will be out in-town today to test its functionality. (On Shed's 3.6 odex ROM, it was FC & freezing a lot worst than CS's)

FWIW, I tried this GPS fix on Tazz's latest Beginning of the End earlier mid-week (full wipe ....) but it didn't do much for my Eris, and it froze and FC'ed as well - went back to CS's ROM - which I'm biased toward as relatively less prone to full freezing, FC's and (yet to see) reboot.

I'll post my findings later/this evening to share with ya all - in case some of you wanted to hold off. If the fix will hold & improve on Shed's ROM, I'm tempted to switch micro-SD card and NAND restore CS's ROM & then flash the fix .... It is time consuming to go back & forth.
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
This fix seems only to push a file gps.supersonic.so to the lib/hw folder. It replaces nothing on an eris rom since there is no supersonic driver to begin with. Correct me of I am wrong but I think this fix is specific to the supersonic and will likely not work for us.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
That is correct sir. Maybe we could find out how he fixed it and merge it into the Eris driver... ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macrodroid:
For anyone having Navigation issues, try this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15529261#post15529261

It's an older version of Maps, works flawless! :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
Well, that would take someone with considerably more skill than myself, but a good idea nonetheless. Where did the current drivers come from? Official eris rom? Hero?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Letitride:
Well, followup to my posting this morning, the Supersonic fix/zip/patch with Shed's non-odex V3.7 ROM didn't do a thing to improve, perhaps making matters worse. Took a 20 miles OW-trip from Long Island into Manhattan and back, use detours against Google Maps/Nav. guidance, and within 10 minutes, lost visual/graphics update and even voice turn-by-turn directions were lost, froze & FC, no forced reboot - apps just hung on me. Same on return trip, made a quick stop 5 miles from home to pickup take-out meals, reset NAV within Car Mode, became useless within 5 minutes including lost of voice guidance/turn-by-turn.

Update #1 - (Mon. July 11 interim results) NAND restore without the Supersonic fix, uninstall Maps 5.7.0 & flash the older 5.2 apk to Shed's ROM and hoping for the best. It was a no "go" even with 5.2 Maps running - drove to nearby Target store 2 miles away & it lost all tracking within 10 minutes & reboot on its own as I was pulling into the parking lot this morning.

Pulled & switched microSD, NAND restore my latest CS's non-odex ROM (and, ignore/turn off auto-updating ....) uninstall Maps 5.7 and push 5.2 apk, did a cache & dalvik wipe and then reboot the phone, and once it settled down, went into recovery - C2C and recheck my settings, ignored the 5.7 update shown in Market. I'm happy to say that my Eris now HAS both visual and voice navigation, maps updating on the "move" and no FC or reboot. It did existed back into Car Mode from NAV, but a quick tap while stopped at a traffic light, and it resumed without further freeze ....

This is the best Google Maps/NAV functionality in the past 30 days or so (different users reporting incidents & problems with GB ROMs) for my Eris - our hardware seemed to be "picky" in how it interact with various builts. Unless there are other major issues, I will stick with CS's ROM for the rest of the week and take a break in doing more flashes, wipes & setup as it's time consuming. If others are experiencing FC, reboot or issues with the latest 5.7, uninstall, download & push Maps 5.2 onto the Eris - and it should bring about a better user experience.

Good luck & thanks, Macrodroid .... :)

Postscript #2 - Mon. 7/11 @ 8 pm - I agreed, maybe we need a Sticky/top thread to consolidate all of the Maps/Nav & GPS issues - especially if it's not just GSB only. FYI - no further problems with Maps 5.2 running CM7-V13 non-odex, I've gone back in the past 2 weeks to using Gapps gb-20110307-signed - my preference as I saw no virtual difference between it and the May or Jun version, and had no FC, freeze or setup issues, etc.
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
Just a thought , might be time for a new thread on gps/maps/nav issues. Getting kinda hard searching all of these rom threads.

Just bought a used Eris off a customer at work for 30 bucks... I'm using condemned on both the Eris and dinc now... love your roms

[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
V14 added to OP... Vanilla and Stripped 2 Hell
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
Dalvik wipe ok for v14? or full wipe? Will load up tomorrow..
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Dalvik should be fine. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
CS - so far V14sth running smooth over 13 with a dalvik wipe. Will test MMS shortly. Like the new boot animation! Also, CM screenshot seems to be working nicely, tho my first one FC'd. You havent updated the OP in a while, what changes have you included? Also, noticed a bunch of GPS-related tweaks on the CM changelog, any chance this would affect Navigation FC/reboot issue? Thx for this CS!

Edit - mms works
[Droid Eris Android Development] Letitride:
Wow, another update - ok, getting ready to flash it tonight after work. Wifi on mine has been acting up just a tiny bit lately, not pulling a strong indoor signal as it used to be - less than 25' from the 2 routers. Time to check out the new one, I think.

Latest Gapps built into the latest ROM? Does that include the apparently buggy Maps 5.7? Is there a need to flash Gapps right after flashing V14 before reboot? Any fixes for Maps or should I revert back to earlier Maps version like 5.2 (which I'm on currently - which made it at least usable without reboot and chronic FC's)

Thinking of only doing just a dalvik & cache wipe instead of full/system wipe and setup all the apps, then do Titanium Restore of 30+ apps once the basic ROM is setup & running .....

Will do a more time-consuming full system wipe if necessary as suggested. Yeah, keeping us busy - LOL.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I probably should clean up the op some huh? Lol. I should update the screenshots too maybe. I haven't really had much of a chance to test GPS for more than 10 minutes a pop but had no problems with those. Been stuck in the office all day. If there's still issues though flash the older version of maps Mac posted for now. If it continues then I'll use that version in the next update. This has the 6/13 happened included in the rom. Seems like dalvik wipe is fine too. I did a full because my last test broke 3g so I wanted to avoid issues is why I said full wipe lol ;) dalvik seems to be fine though. I tried to answer letitride at the same time since I can't multiquote on the app :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
In case anyone is wondering, nothing in the new version fixes the navigation fc. In fact, it may be worse, I got my first reboot on a cs rom :(

Back to old map version
[Droid Eris Android Development] knitpurlgurl:
Performed full wipe and flashed this morning. Everything is running smoothly. Haven't tried Navigation, but I don't use it on my phone.

Put the Google+ app on and synced for updates. It doesn't notify me of updates until after I open the app, but I think this is an app issue, not a ROM issue.

Kudos CS on another smooth version!! (And thanks!)
[Droid Eris Android Development] jrgthird:
Very nice ROM!! Quick too. No issues so far. Thanks for your hard work!:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Glad you like it :) I think the google+ may be the app.. Sometimes I get notifications sometimes I don't... I'm looking into it to be sure though :)

Running latest V14 for past 36+ hours with full system/data/cache/dalvik wipe, flash Gapp, reboot & setup wifi, then restore apps (system only/no data) from TB after installing Google Apps - using Maps 5.7 initially. Everything but Maps/Nav worked fairly well, but Maps started FC's & freezing within 5 to 10 minutes. At times, Voice Navigation continued to worked but screen update froze, except for top portion (turns-by-turns) and lower section (time to destination) - next to impossible to reset/restart or get it to recover while cruising at moderate traffic speed flow.

Uninstall 5.7 Maps, wipe dalvik & cache, used Astro to push/install Maps 5.2 apk onto phone, also re-install Street View with wipe, and finally rebooting. Navigation and Maps are working much improved, sometimes a quick tap on the blue on-screen (non-moving) display will get it to update/refresh and restart quickly, while voice Nav with turn-by-turn nearly stay on track 95% of the time.

Has GPS & Toolbox running, set to refresh & download data if it's older than 60 minutes, and GasBuddy had no trouble running alongside. Heading out of town to New England tomorrow & report more on GPS functionality.

Overall speaking, Rom is very responsive & no issues with rest of Apps, thanks. I would stay with Shed's GSB ROM for a little while but Maps/Nav just isn't solid enough for my needs.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Keep me posted on the 5.2 maps apk. If it's still working well I'll change the apk in the next update to that one.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
What has everyone been using for CPU settings? I'm trying to decide if I should leave them where they are or bump them a notch... If most of you bump them a little then I'll bump the default a little.
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGratefulDead:
I use 710 Max and sometime put min to 480 but usaally 285
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
I bumped ours up to 710/480 ondemand. We play a lot of games and they run better now that I bumped it up.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Letitride:
Progress on 5.2 maps apk is looking good on my Eris, which was on a clean full system wipe & setup, minimal install using TB to restore system app only. Used it yesterday to drive 135 miles to eastern CT for an overnight trip & came back early this afternoon plus some local side trips within the cities. No FC or freeze observed, it did once exited back into Car Mode - was able to restart it & relock GPS signal, resume & voice guidance held its own for 2+ hours continuously. Map graphics NOT always catching up or moving, but a quick fingertip tap on the "blue" NAV button displayed on screen got it updated within seconds. No surprised reboot or complete seizure, etc. so it's functional for my purposes since my Garmin bite the dust not long ago & I've hold off on replacing it.

I uninstalled 2 other Apps, Weather Channel (setup as a widget) & MapQuest completely - since I've noticed it running or starting up on its own and both use aGPS signals.

In answering your other post, CPU at 604 max/245 min, On Demand along with default settings as you set them up. Overall, I'm getting decent & acceptable battery life for a full 15 to 20 hours day of normal use.

BTW, I got another person's rooted Eris running Shed's Vanilla FroShedYo updated version (CM6.1 non-GB) with Maps 5.3 running - and it's fine, no navigational issues like most CM-sourced GB ROM's. If I remember, other posts mentioned Maps 5.5 was okay too, depending .....
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
OP Updated with V15... gapps and Maps 5.2 are included with ROM. DO NOT UPDATE MAPS!
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
Sweet! Thanks cs! - I'm gonna linger a day or two on 14. Trying a few gps related things with newest maps version. May have made a little progress by flashing over an old gapps zip and thus rolling back maps jar files. More testing needed to confirm if it actually worked or not - but so far seems better, well at least different.

Oh, dalvik + flashover ok for v15?
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Keep me posted on that then if you would. I was thinking trying that as well but with everything going on here right now decided to go with what I already know works lol. Dalvik and flashover should be fine.. yes.
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
Will do sir, and thank you!
[Droid Eris Android Development] equilni:
I would like to say thanks for this ROM. I had to downgrade to my Eris for the time being (DX messed up) and have been using V14S2H since 7/14.

A few things to note (not in any order):

1. [BUG] Camera - under resolution, it shows 5M pixels twice. Choosing either locks the application. I don't know if the 9x/2x fix can help there - haven't tried.

2. [BUG?] USB debugging icon doesn't show when plugged in.

3. [REQUEST] Anyway of keeping the File Manager as part of the Stripped 2 Hell version?

4. [REQUEST] Can you link the CM7 bootanimation for those who want it? (in attachment below taken from the CM7 Hero CDMA ROM)

5. V15S2H has DSP in it and no CM wallpapers, V14 has the CM wallpapers - oversight?

6. Not sure if this is a ROM issue but I haven't seen this on any of my other phones or ROMs - Backing up my apps & data in Titanium Backup locks up on the first attempt on the Android Keyboard. Rebooting the phone and redoing it is fine (so I can Strip it to hell more - books, email, spare parts, dev tools, news and weather). This happened each time I flashed V14 & V15 (back on V14).

7. Re: your CPU request. I have actually lowered my clock to default 528. My phone seemed to be overheating and I don't really do alot of stuff on the Eris now - basic email/social networking/gtalk/ADWex has 1 screen, no animations etc.
[Droid Eris Android Development] equilni:

In an attempt to cover everything since I'm in my phone atm.... Dsp manager was left in the stripped version by mistake and cm wallpaper was in 14 s2h by mistake as well. I can make a zip to add file manager back when I get home later. I will also add a link in the op for the boot animation. Thank you for posting the logcat. I will look into that problem as well as soon as I can.

I hadn't heard of any ti problems in a while and haven't had any myself but I will try to duplicate it and see if I can find a solution to it.
