@jayochs

I had the problem twice today, have never had the SMS Time Fix installed. But, in the end, I'm wondering if it may have been a hiccup with HTC (as odd as it sounds), because a friend at work had the same problem with her stock EVO.

It's nice to know that refreshing the weather will fix it in the future. I was doing a hot restart to fix it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
interesting cappiez. i uninstalled it and haven't noticed it yet.....that would be REALLY weird though, wouldnt it? i think it would have to be a verizon problem, not HTC, as verizon networks are giving us what time it is....??

guys, if you use GOSMS, theres an option under "tips" to set the messages up in order of how you sent them and get them, thereby eliminating the time difference. its working well for me so far!!

i'm going to turn geotagging OFF now on the camera app...hmm
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tribbey:
use "smsfixtimes" app in the market it fixes the time on them so you know when someone sent you that txt... and you dont have to use another sms app

open the app hit configure/test amd change how many hours it needs to be ahead to come at the right time
[Droid Incredible Android Development] steveox:
I have been running beta 3 for all afternoon and I only have two problems. It seems that the time does get ahead of its self if you have it set to auto. If its on manual it keeps the time. Also whenever I use anything that uses gps it soft rebootes. I cannot seem to get maps to work ,but that is a known problem in the op. If I turn on gps and go to Googles homepqge it also soft reboots when gps locks. Other than that calls come through, mms works, and text times have been correct. Thanks for the hard work on the rom!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
trib, i was using it...and then i noticed my actual clock was jumping ahead by 10+ minutes for no reason whatsoever...so i uninstalled it, and my clock isn't doing it anymore. therefore, i concluded that app has problems for me. again, i use GOSMS all the time anyway, so this is an easy fix for myself.

steve, you're saying the time gets ahead of itself if your SMS fix times app is set to phone time? is that what you mean by auto?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
another bug, and this ones just absolutely stupid....when syncing people to Facebook, know how it shows their birthday in the people app? yeah well for some reason, in the people app, everybodys birthday is one day earlier than it should. for example my friends bday is tomorrow, Saturday the 28th, and people zays its today, Friday the 27th....that's obviously wrong and if I even view their profile via the HTC sense version oof fb, it shows the right date!! wtf seriously? what a dumb small stupid annoying bug lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
and just wanna confirm before i goto bed here that GPS is in fact causing rebooted. just opened maps, then I realized GPS was off so I turned it bback on and bam, hot restart right there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cappiez:
Verizon does make more sense. I said HTC because of the EVO being a Sprint phone. Unless it's possibly a Google issue. Either way, something is odd.

And my clock is currently 10 minutes ahead.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] steveox:
No I don't use SMS fix times, the time just seems to run fast. By auto I mean if you click the clock, select world clock, hit menu, local time setting, then deselect automatic. You can then manually set the time. When I do this the time runs fine, the only difference is that I don't think it will auto reset for daylight savings.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] steveox:
Aside from the gps, and clock running fast this rom has done me just fine for the entire day. I am at 13 hours with normal use and still have 56% of battery left. I feel that is worthy of a daily driver. Hell I was even early for work thanks to the clock :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
Givin this rom a go to say i tried them all, and this is some very impressive work. Mms and gps both work for me as does google maps. Great rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 1107963:
Great Rom no issue so far... Working fine.... Gps and google map is working for me... No complains so far....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TokedUp:
So yesterday I looked at my phone and it was rebooting, I wasnt using it, it was just sitting on my desk. Didnt think much of it. Then this morning I woke up, checked the weather, put phone down, looked back at about 10secs. later and it was rebooting again. Uh oh.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scarfoot:
Great ROM --

For folks having problems with the MAPs, I turned on Latitide, and my maps stopped forced closing, and has been working like a champ ever since..

Also, issues with MMS messages taking awhile to send was corrected with I changed the clock to manual update, vs regular update.

I am not sure if this is really related, but I thought I would share and see if people had similar experiences.

Any luck on the "white screen" when a call comes in? I don't mind the icons being black, its kinda cool that way :)

This is definitely a daily driver!!

Regards,

-Sf-
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GRZLA:
I've had quite a few soft reboot today and they were all gps related. Temp fix is to just turn gps off, but I will likely downgrade to beta 2 when I get home.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
I agree with the icons being black/opaque on the lockscreen. I actually think it looks better/cleaner than with the actual application icons.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
in regads tto the clock jumping forward, I just noticed tthat as I opened the weather app, for a split second it junped eleven minutes ahead, and then it refreshed and went back. I'm wondering if the weather app being the sense 3 one is the culprit here???
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
look!

Don't Trust the Time on Your HTC Android Phone Today http://phandroid.com/?p=51907

so its NOT the rom
[Droid Incredible Android Development] adam29617:
Desire HD clock running 10 min fast.

The ROM is running 10 min fast, I had to got to date and time to revert back 10 min. I thought the clock updated with the network??
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
.....read the post right above you, man.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
See post above. Not a ROM problem
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
hey I wonder if the Facebook birthday ahead by one day problem stems from this as well...?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cappiez:
Well, that's good to know that it's not the ROM. Now for us to figure out if it's something that we can fix.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
most likely not, it seems to be a server error of some type with ALL htc phones....meaning, i wonder if its a problem with accuweather.com, seeing as i'm randomly getting the 'current location' bull**** again, and when i open the app sometimes it says "can not connect to location server to establish your location"

i'm wondering if maybe the HTC clocks pull data from accuweather for time as well as weather.....???

also, to fix it, go into your clock settings and make it manual time, not automatic. that will stop it from jumping ahead, meaning it's obvioulsy some type of server problem somewhere
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chadledford:
Not sure if this has been posted or not but in beta 2 maps gps and all that stuff worked fine but on beta 3 im geting the soft reboot
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
lol yeah theres pages of posts about it....GPS is causing reboots in any app that uses them. make sure you all turn geo tagging OFF on your cameras!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chadledford:
Yeah i should have looked. Thats wierd cuz in beta 2 everything concerning gps including apps that used it worked fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
WD, seems newtoroot got the icons for the lock screen working on his optimized gingersense, and joel's got something in the works too! here's hoping everybody shares information :P
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Ha, I'll toast to that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] geekboy2005:
love the rom

Have not any problems until today when i went to make a call. it would not connect and if it tried to said to turn airplane mode off it was not on any fix for this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Ok guys, GPS related soft reboots can be resolved by replacing /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko with the one from Beta 2. I just tested the browser, Geotagging in photos and maps, without an issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
I have no idea howto do that lol got a flashable zip...?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I'll see if I can throw something together.

EDIT: P.S. I have something special for you guys too. Give me a little bit to test it out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
!!!!! I love surprises
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
Awesome thank you. Going to do that now!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Does that have anything to do with the words "EMMC" or "Mount" or even "USB" :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Thanks to newtoroot for sharing the Lockscreen icon fix with me. It will take a little bit for the lockscreen to load the first time, but after that it's great. The SMS text previews still work fine AND the incoming call photos will show up. :) One attachment has JUST the GPS fix and the other has the GPS and lockscreen fix. They're named accordingly.

Screen shots:

Someone test and verify that it works as well for them, before everyone downloads it (like you'll wait). LOL. Flash at YOUR OWN RISK! It works great on my phone. :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Nope :( :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Ah, no matter. The lockscreen fix and GPS fix is also greatly appreciated. Thanks man!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

nandroiding and flashing now! you rock man. haha
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Anytime bud! I haven't given up on the EMMC mount, but I need to be able to use my phone for a bit and I was making it pretty unstable. LOL
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wdfowty:
End of the world part one...we still have December 2012 to live through lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TokedUp:
So the MMS not working, is this just a stock messenger thing or can I use, say, Handcent to get it to work. I send lots of pics.

Any other apps not working? Netflix, Youtube, Slingbox?

Looking forward to this ROM, thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wdfowty:
Upload finished!

http://www.multiupload.com/EYWU902M8A
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ekud420:
Dl'n now ......can't wait to flash :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Which one is this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wdfowty:
It's the same rom, but I disabled A2SD, as it was causing instability (missing apps, bootloops, etc.)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Awesome...Now we need to work on MMS.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
Do I need CW3 to flash this or will CW2 work?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Amphibliam:
Still doesn't work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Man, this thing smokes! No lockscreen lag or anything. Much, much faster than all of the 2.2 based Desire Z Rom's as well. Great work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wdfowty:
It's CWM 3

How do you mean? What's not working?

Sweet! I can't take that much credit though, I just made this great rom work on our device :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TokedUp:
Flash successful! Running great! Thanks again. This has everything from 3.0 that i want and runs it great.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
There are different types of 3.0 lockscreens to choose from correct? I see this includes "HTC Kingdom lockscreen with buttons (Phone, Mail, Camera, Messages)" ... is that the only lockscreen or can it be customized like in the 3.0?

Thanks and great work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] droidrage2010:
That was WELL worth the wait... NICE WORK.

Can't wait to play around with it more tomorrow... for now, sleep.

Thanks again, this is sweet!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
It can be customized. Different types like friend stream and weather. I just love the weather one. You can also change the app shortcuts. Though the icons don't show up for some reason.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CLeDInc:
Damn great work with this ROM. Love how it has the best from sense 3.0 added to the stability of Sense 2.1 running gingerbread. Found my new daily ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Jrkoffjonson:
Not your fault but I hate the stock keyboard D:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Vernox701:
long press on add text and it brings up android keyboard
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wdfowty:
Long press any text field and select "Input Method", then "Android Keyboard". It's the keyboard I use, I can't stand HTC's keyboard :p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Vernox701:
How do you get the 3g icons instead of evdo
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Thanks Jay! Please post as soon as you get to test it. I want to get out of here for this holiday weekend, but I want to make sure you have no issues, first!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
great great....i'm nandroiding now, i'll report back in likeeeeeee, 5 minutes!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Awesome!

I'm not sure if everyone knows this or not, but Auto Brightness if not enabled by default on this great rom. Enabling it should save you some battery juice or at least save your eyes from a super bright phone in a dark room.

Thanks again to WD for this great rom! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
yeah? i never use auto brightness...i always have it set to 40%, and if it's sunny out and i'm outside i'll blast her to 100% haha...is 40% high?

also, just booted up, no bootloop!

took a bit to load the lockscreen like you said...i wonder if this will happen every time we boot the phone up..? or just this initial first install? took only about a minute here for me! icons show up! upon reboot, i answered my own question....every time you boot, it's gonna take that minute or so for the lock screen to come up :\

**TIP** if you don't wanna wait the minute or so for the lockscreen, HIT THE OPTICAL BUTTON and your home screens will show up! apparently, opitcal button unlocks the lock screen here?? don't have to use the ring if you don't want!

checking caller ID pictures....

SUCCESS!

checking GPS..

FAILED! got a soft reboot on google maps!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
I'll go ahead and confirm the fix works. The icons show up now. Takes awhile for it to stabilize, but once it does, it's fine. Stupid EGL :p, and Adreno 200 for that matter.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Dang it! Mine is working. Let me look at the zip.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Great! How's your GPS?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Newt:
You guys like the icons ha!?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
i noticed that trying to open maps fails a few times, it just brings me back to the home screen, and then it'll finally load.....right now it's not resetting, BUT i just got my location, and then maps quit again. didn't force close, but it just goes back to the home screen.......

.

wiht GPS off, maps opens fine, but it will STILL RANDOMLY QUIT back to home screen

i'm trying an uninstall and then reinstall
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I know I do! Thanks ROOT!!! :) Now if I can figure out why Jay's GPS is still acting silly... Mine is working fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
My browser was closing on me, prior to swapping that lib, when google was getting my location. Now it works great. Try another location app or geotag on --> take a picture.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
browser, or google maps? i'm tlaking the actual google maps app.

testing with geotagging now
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wdfowty:
Dude, you rock!

I'm away for most of the night for a graduation/party, but I'll get back to this when I get a chance :D

BTW, thanks again newtoroot!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I meant to say anything that used location would send me into a soft reboot (browser going to google homepage and using location to find out where I am, maps, geotag, etc).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
gotcha, seems as if geotagging isn't a problem, didn't get a reboot.

what else uses GPS? speedtest didn't throw me into a reboot, but then again that only happened once, and not every time. ill try browser now

browser didn't throw me into a reboot. hmm
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Thanks WD! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Yeah, sounds like maps might be your only issue. If you haven't uninstalled it, try clearing data on it via settings-->applications-->manage applications-->all find it and choose clear data. If that doesn't work uninstall and reinstall.

P.S. I'm stepping out to see my woman and drink a beer. I'll check on ya' from my phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
just did an uninstall/reinstall, and maps will still quit back to home screen for some reason......which is exactly what WD said it would do in the OP..hmm..i haven't noticed that before this though, hmm!

oh and btw, my location icon is gone???????? wtf haha it was here before this flash.

damn. maps is now 100% unusable, it quits out constantly. wonder what its doin?

sounds good jermaine, we'll keep testing whenever you're free! but for now, atleast we've got some sweet icons and pic ID's finally :D :D and just remember, when its takin forever for your lock screens to load on bootup, just hit the opitcal button to unlock!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] aznpenguin:
Lockscreen icons show up. GPS works, but I only got a lock a couple times. maps keeps force closing on me...

EDIT: Lockscreen has been unstable after a reboot. Sometimes it will show up when I wake the phone, sometime not. maybe i'll just apply the gps fix instead...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
What version of Maps? Mine is 5.5.0 and working great. I will test out navigating to my girls house.

@Jay, yes we can test more tomorrow.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Vernox701:
Jermaine can u post a version wich only affects the Caller i.d seems like lockscreen is unstable with the icons
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
mines 5.50 as well, and navigation doesn't work well either, it'll back out just like maps does, but then it'll restart itself out of nowhere. hmm?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GRZLA:
You've posted about 50 times about gps bugs. Relax and let WD fix it when he gets the time to.

Attention: beta3 has issues with gps causing soft reboots. Revert to 2 or disable gps until it is fixed.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
GRZLA, if you'd bothered to read ANYTHING in the past 2 pages, [MOD edit...watch your language] you'd realize that jermaine is working on a GPS fix that i'm testing, along with others, and we're reporting our issues with it.

it's called beta testing. google it if you don't understand, mr. 'i've only had an incredible for 3 weeks, what would i know.'

:rolleyes:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kentsimon:
GPS Fix

I've tried the GPS fix and I use Navagon and Sygic. It doesn't work. I get soft reboot or the app just closes. I have found with B3 that I just reboot my phone and the GPS programs work for awhile. I just removed the fix and all is well again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
This is awesome man thank you! Is there a way to keep the dark bubbles but still have the incoming call image show up?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Ok. Now my maps is closing out on me too. I'll check it out tomorrow.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Farly certain this is caused by the lockscreen icons. Was using Optimised GingerSense and when he added the lockscreen icons it caused maps and some other apps to go A-wall. I don't understand why a little thing like icons could screw so much up lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Truckin'Ain't4Sissies:
"I've been patiently waiting for a Rom to explode on, if you think your gps'll lock then your so wrong"

Sorry, I've been bumpin' 50.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
It seems that the icons are actually causing these problems in a few of the gingersense ROMs.

I'm wondering if Jermaine were to remove the icons, keep the incoming call pics working (not that that matters but so happy that it works now!) and flash the gps fix, if this would allow the location to lock? I'm still using beta 3 without flashing either fix yet and the ROM is running so smoothly. I will flash only the fix and see what happens and report back after I finish my mods of some of the status bar icons.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Yeah I have found the same thing with many different ROMs, those little icons are causing big trouble lol. So I feel the same way, the icons are much less important to me than stability. That's why I came over here from Optimized GingerSense, it has the same fixes minus the icons.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
I actually prefer the look of the lockscreen without the icons anyway. I like just the bubbles with the text. It's more practical on most of these ROMs right now but I think that it also gives the phone a more minimalist look which is what I'm all about. When a stable version does get released, I plan on removing the icons anyway (of course it wouldn't be at all possible without the help of newtoroot so be sure to thank him!)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
On a side note, I flashed just the GPS fix and it didn't solve the reboot problem so it may not be related to the icons after all.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Vernox701:
did you clear cache.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Yeah I really do too, in a perfect wold the grey circles would move when you moved them into the silver circle lol but I think that would be too much to ask for. But yeah I think I will always prefer without the icons because the stability is most important for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Vernox701:
I think they move on 3.0 but if you drag the smaller icons into the circle they open up that particular app....not sure if knew that
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
JERMAINE,

another bug, the sense 3 weather app now closes JUST LIKE google maps closes with the Icons + GPS fix zip.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
My weather app is working fine, so far. The icons and call screen are both fixed by the EGL drivers, so you can't enable one without the other. Tomorrow I'm going to look at the logcat and see what it is that's happening. I like the icons and the lockscreen has been rock solid since it settled down, like newtoroot said it would.
