Some data points:

The signal to noise levels reported by the test tools seem reasonable.

All GPS systems use averaging to get a lock.

All GPS systems use Kalman filtering, which filters and connects location and speed, to make the system work at all. The stronger the filter, the more stable the position. But this gives bigger problems in turns.

Dedicated receivers have a much bigger antenna and thus need less averaging to get a stable position.

Receiver software has 'modes' - for example walking and driving mode. In driving mode, movements at low speeds are suppressed.

GPS is still a work in progress; there must be a reason Samsung renamed LBStestMode into AngryGPS!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryukenden:
Ok, so i did some search on this problem, didn't find any solutions on this forum, so i will ask here if anyone experienced similar problems...

Anyway, i've been using all sorts of ROM's and i noticed that on some battery drains very fast when phone is idling...

I hooked up my phone to the pc and observed logcat output. This is what came up:

and it keeps going like that...

Has anyone got this issue ever?
[Droid X General] abcleanonme:
Since this is the Droid X, what will it take to get CM7 on it? Basically do the kernels match? And will the baseband be updated? I can test it as long as I don't get stuck with a Verizon baseband, as I've already had to take one back because of that.

The stock ROM shipped with mine, which is on the Cellular South network, has the following:

System Version: Version.3.2.6.MB809.ACG-CellSouth.en.US

Android version: 2.2.2

Kernel: 2.6.32.9-ge37fac8qgd748@il93lnxdroid09 #2

Baseband: BP_C_02.06.00R

I attempted to install the CM7 nightly 3 and it simply aborts the installation with "assert failed: run_program("/tmp/check_kernel") == 0"

Let's get this working because i'm sure there are other Milestone X owners who would love to be running CM7!!!
[Droid X General] cyberhound:
We will see. I think we Milestone Xers will be fine. Having used CM7 on an nTelos Hero and that had some Sprint stuff in it. Did not affect affect the radio at all. Should be just a ROM and that is it.
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
You might actually need some special attention from cvpcs on this one. Since we still can't load custom kernels on the X, this 2nd init process is little bit sorcery :)

This process only works with our froyo kernel. My guess is that the check_kernel script mentioned above will fail for Milestone people. Your kernel version will be slightly different.

I assume the process would work ok with your kernel, but the script might need to be modified to allow your version.
[Droid X General] sundar2012:
What is a Milestone X? The Droid X is the Shadow.
[Droid X General] cyberhound:
the milestone x is the basically the same phone as a droid x but without the droid branding builit in and is carried by regional carriers. hardware and specs are identical. as noted, there may be some differences in the kernal or software that may cause issues. i am not worried though. someone will attempt to load cm7 on one and we will see what happens and then someone will most likely figure out a work around for any issues. i won't be that guy though. i need the phone for work, so i will hold off until the kinks are worked out.
[Droid X General] abcleanonme:
The check_kernel script looks for:

"Linux localhost 2.6.32.9-g55626e1 #1 PREEMPT Sun Nov 7 23:24:32 CST 2010 armv7l GNU/Linux"

uname -a returns:

"Linux localhost 2.6.32.9-gace4441 #2 PREEMPT Mon Feb 7 18:23:06 CST 2011 armv7l GNU/Linux"
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
If your brave, try changing the script to match your kernel. I bet it would work.

If you happen to have an SBF avail for your phone (I saw another thread in general where there is one for Alltell) I would think you could recover pretty easily if it fails.
[Droid X General] abcleanonme:
Success! I didn't run into any problems after changing the check_kernel script.
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
You should send a note to cvpcs about that... maybe he can change the script to only look for generic froyo kernel.
[Droid X General] abcleanonme:
Wait, now I can't get into clockwork recovery... it just hangs at the moto symbol. This is the one for Droid X (2nd init). It worked fine with the old one.
[Droid X General] tavocabe:
Baseband question

I have the mexican version "Motoroi X". Will flashin cm7 update/change the baseband. Is there a workaround to have cm7 with the Iusacell (mexican carrier) baseband? I really want to have cm7 as my last phone was a HTC Desire with first and last custom rom CyanogenMod
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
You didn't say whether you used Droid X Bootstrap (or Droid 2)... but you aren't supposed to. It will brick your device (well, soft-brick) as it interrupts the 2nd-init process.

If you can successfully boot into CM, just long press the power button and select reboot ... you will then have an option to reboot into recovery.

If you did use bootstrap, you will likely need to SBF and start over.
[Droid X General] abcleanonme:
No, I read to not use either of the bootstrap programs and didn't. After flashing cm7 I selected "Droid X (2nd init) in rom manager to install the newer clockwork recovery 4.x.x.x. it seemed to go okay, but when I selected reboot to recovery I encountered the hang up. Couldn't get it to boot into clockwork recovery for anything, so I sbf'ed back to stock, then updated to nightly 7 after rooting.
[Droid X General] abcleanonme:
What are your kernel and baseband versions?

I wouldn't recommend doing anything without an sbf for your carrier or at least one with the same baseband, as you might end up in a pickle.

That said, as long as the kernel you have is the same, I guess you can change the check_kernel script like I did and cm7 should flash with no problems. Just depends on how brave you are or how much you're willing to risk as the locked bootloader makes everything tricky.
[Droid X General] rynosaur:
I know this warning against using DX/D2 Bootstrapper with CM7/Nightlies comes from a good place, but it's completely false for my phone. In reality, since flashing off of build0 to nightly1-9, I am unable to permanently flash CMR 4.0.0.4/5. In fact, if I flash it within CM Rom Manager, my phone will hang on reboot at the froyo M. However, I can do a battery pull, reboot into CM7, and then use DX2 Bootstrapper to install 2.5.008, and reboot directly into recovery just as we would before CM7 came out for DX. If I flash the orange recovery from within recovery (even after a complete wipe and new Monster install), Orange will load but not survive a reboot. What's more, the phone successfully boots into the Bootstrapped recovery with the typical CM7 power-button reboot prompt into recovery.

If I really want CMR 4.0.0.5, I just soft-flash it in 2.5.0.8, although for whatever reason, no DX ROMs (even CM7 nightlies) are built for the new update-script style (orange recovery).

FYI, I never first install Bootstrapper first before attempting to lock-in Orange CMR, I've just learned through hard experience (and much wear to my case shell and battery door/pull tab) that Bootstrapper -- at least for my phone -- is the most reliable Recovery option, even for CM7.

Ipso facto, I think cvpcs changed the 2nd-init.d behavior between build0 and the nightlies, or my inability to flash Orange CMR 4x, and my ability to use bootstrapper wouldn't exist!:)
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I think you may be confusing ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM) and DroidX/2Bootstrapper.

CWM 2.5.08 (Green) is just an older version. CWM 4.X(Orange) is just a newer version of the same thing.

Bootstrapper is the APK that you use to tell the phone to reboot into recovery (CWM). Bootstrapper works by hijacking logwrapper.bin and hijacks the init process.

I haven't tried to actually run DX bootstrapper with Cm7, but given that they both need to muck around with init, then I expect them to break each other.

I had the same problem with the new CWM at first, but I did get it to stick after a try or two. Although, I don't think it really matters at this point. Both work just fine.
[Droid X General] rynosaur:
I'm glad the "correct" way works for you, but it's not working for me. And no, I'm not getting Bootstrapper/CWM Recovery confused. This is not my first rodeo, this is my third Android model, and I've had CWM Recovery or JesusFreake-Amon-RA mods since back in the day. Apparently, injecting extra steps into the first or second init.d is not an exclusive process . . .
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Bootstrapper is fairly unique to the DX/D2. Since we have no access to the bootloader, we can't just replace the factory recovery with CWM (which is what is done on most phones.)

Not really trying to 'call you out' or anything, I just didn't hear you mention the whole Bootstrap process. You mentioned using the CM7 Power off/reboot recovery sequence, but not actually using Bootstrapper to get into recovery. That's why I keep going back to this.
[Droid X General] SirPots:
you want to tell me step by step how you did it haha,

I tried to change the script but the installation keeps aborting for some reason or it just hangs on the "installing" screen, help would be greatly appreciated!
[Droid X General] abcleanonme:
Sure thing, I'll break it down when I get off work tonight
[Droid X General] razorloves:
here's how to bypass the kernel check, which prevents Milestone X users from flashing CM7. .

NOTE: YOU HAVE TO SBF TO THE FROYO ROM PRIOR TO INSTALLING CM7.

Open the cm7 rom zip with winrar, navigate to the updater-script file located in META-INF\com\google\android, double click on it, it will ask what program to use, choose notepad or notepad++, delete the first three lines of code (listed below) , close the file, it will ask to save so click on save, then it will ask you if you wish to update it in the archieve, choose yes. then you're done. takes about a minute. if that.

package_extract_file("system/etc/releaseutils/check_kernel", "/tmp/check_kernel");

set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/check_kernel");

assert(run_program("/tmp/check_kernel") == 0);

MAKE SURE YOU ONLY REMOVE THE CODE LISTED ABOVE.

See the screen shot i've attached so you you know what you will see when you open the file.

More Info: These kernel check instructions were not in the original release, CM7 RC0 for the droid x. So you do not need to perform this if flashing that version. But if you want the Nightlies (latest and greatest that has fixes), then you need to do this.
[Droid X General] SirPots:
haha razorloves this is my xda account its dtpacula from rootzwiki lol, I posted that question just to see how that dude did it
[Droid X General] abcleanonme:
I guess I did it the hard way then haha. First I ran uname -a in a terminal on my phone and copied down the kernel version it returned. I extracted the nightly .zip to my desktop and found the check_kernel script in /system/etc/releaseutils. After swapping the kernel version in check_kernel with the one from uname, I just repackaged everything, renamed the file for clarity, and booted into clockwork recovery. I wiped data and cache and then flashed the new .zip with no problems.
[Droid X General] deepsix_69:
inland cellular

ok, so i have a milestone x but for inland cellular. I looked at the versions for the cellular south phone in the first post and everything is the same except the version (heres mine)

System Version: Version.3.2.6.MB809.ACG.en.US

Android version: 2.2.2

Kernel: 2.6.32.9-ge37fac8qgd748@il93lnxdroid09 #2

Baseband: BP_C_02.06.00R

What all does the sbf change, does it change the system version, could i use CS sbf to fix my phone if something goes wrong as I cant create a backup with CM recovery.

I also read that it said not to use a bootstapper. So how did you get CM7 on there? I have mine rooted but thats it so far, as I understand you cant put a recovery on there. I had a htc desire before this, so i understand most of the process but it is a little different.
[Droid X General] jivor50:
Razorloves-I have taken those 3 lines of code out and rezipped and still no luck install just hangs, no spinner bar install movement at all with either MIUI or CM7 nightly.

Here are steps I have done and done them many times

1. SBF to alltel shadow rom

2. input MIN, MDN, and all the other stuff to get phone working

3. remove 3 lines of code and transfer to sd

4. root - superoneclick

5. sign in to google to get CWR from market

6. install and run CWR or bootstrapper 2

7. Recovery bootloader

8. wipe data/cache

9. install from sdcard

10. install hangs for 20 minutes then give up

rinse and repeat with both MIUI 1.8.19 or CM7 nightly, I am flat flabergasted, I have tried virtually every combination from unmount sd card and then wipe system,data,cache. SBF and wipe data and cache. Same result every time

I can SBF to verizon and then MIUI loaded but then cant get phone to work obviously because its now verizon baseband/innards. I dont understand why alltel system/ROM is a major PITA. any direction would be appreciated from anyone.

Thanks
[Droid X General] razorloves:
are you following my guide verbatim, or are you doing slight variations?

how EXACTLY are you removing those 3 lines. and you say you're rezipping, but you shouldn't be doing that. are you extracting the zip?

i could only guess that you're damaging the script or the zip at some point.

just let me know and we'll try to figure out whats wrong
[Droid X General] jivor50:
I followed your guide exactly to a t.

1. get winrar

2. open miui zip (1.8.19 for droid x) with winrar (not extracting, just getting into zip)

3. open updater script with wordpad (did also with notepad++)

4. deleted top 3 lines per your instructions, closed, asked to save said yes

5. asked me to update archive, said yes

6. loaded onto SD

7. recovery for droid, not droid 2init

8. reboot into recovery

9. delete data and cache

10. install zip

11. hangs on the install. no stripe movement on the loading bar

On stock froyo 2.2.1 version 3.1.39.m8809acg-alltel.en.us.

have sbf several times and did same procedure after rooting, still same thing
[Droid X General] jivor50:
OK Razorloves. Got it. Didnt do anything special other than move the adjusted MIUI into the cwm download folder on sd card and install rom from sd card within Rom manager and then it finally went through. maybe bad location on sd card or something, i dont really know!!! strange
[Droid X General] razorloves:
cool. glad you got it

I have previously posted on how my WiFi was only working via a ****ty app.

Now I have some more info that makes me beleive that our home wifi router is the cause of that.

I went to my friends house and WiFi worked completely normal there, so it must be the routers fault right?

I have also reflashed the radio, so it probably isn't it's fault.

It all started happening when I updated to the OTA 2.2

Any help on how to fix this?

I don't have pc wifi to experiment with. But I will try to tell something.

Wifi on wildfire has the support of b and g networks by default. So no wifi "n" network on wildfire by default. There is a chance of difference in these network types between ur wifi and ur friends wifi, such that it works only with ur friends one.

And I think I saw somewhere in development section that someone made wifi "n" network working on wildfire. But Im not curious about it since I don't use it.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
But what's really odd, is that it worked like it should on stock 2.1, so obviously 2.2 ****ed something up...right?

I'm in San Francisco right now and am clearly in AT&T's 4g territory. Well I'm only pulling 3mb down on a speed test. And my buddy who is sitting right next to me with his iPhone 4 is pulling 4.5 down. I thought the iPhone 4 was only hspa and not even plus?

Is it possible ATT is throttling me because I dont have a "4G" specific plan?
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1.18.12:
Try switching radios
[HTC Inspire 4G] Cyanidex00:
A data plan is of course, always going to be a data plan. There is no difference from one plan to another AFAIK besides 2GB and 4GB or if you're grandfathered for unlimited.

Just obviously with software updates etc. to enable "4G".

I'm up here in MT and I barely touch 1.5Mbps if I'm lucky. My friend has the same issue, and AT&T keeps telling me it's because MT is a "new acquisition". BS I've had the service for almost 3 months now. Learn to put up more towers!

Anyways, that's my $0.02.

[HTC Inspire 4G] seh6183:
Wells there's not much I can do about it now. I'm in the back seat of a car going 80 miles an hour towards a non '4G' area.

I was certain I flashed the right radio. I have the H emblem next to my service indicator.

Can anyone that has experience with san Francisco confirm my speeds are unusually low? Also does anyone know if the iPhone is hspa+?
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
3 months is not a long time when you think about it. It takes 3 years and about 2.9 million dollars to put up one single tower.

Thread moved to Q&A
[HTC Inspire 4G] seh6183:
I'm getting 1.5 in my hometown of Sacramento, but that's clearly not in 4g territory so I assumed its just 3g there (even though I have the h emblem). 3 is definitely than 1.5 but it still doesn't explain why my buddies iPhone is pulling more down when its apparently not capable of hspa+

[HTC Inspire 4G] Four-Fifty-X:
I have read in a number of posts that the data plan does matter. The 4G plan offer access to another APN, with is required for authentication on the 4G network. In the Dev forum, there is a thread about APNs that discusses this.
[HTC Inspire 4G] seh6183:
I'm going to go check that out immediately.
[HTC Inspire 4G] seh6183:
I really wish this hadn't been moved to QA because no one looks in here. I am really trying to find a solution to this issue. I have been searching and can't come up with a definite answer. I need people who live in the bay to post what speeds they have been getting. I think I may need to call att.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Did you check the thread in dev section and edit the build prop? Might call att And see if there are certain apns needed for the 4G network authentication.
[HTC Inspire 4G] seh6183:
I saw the the thread about editing the build prop yes. I just checked att coverage maps for 4g and Sacramento is now in the coverage zone. Should now be seeing hspa+ speeds here. I'll do a test when I get home but I'm willing bet my roommates iPhone will still pull faster speeds than me. I will also get on the phone with att and find out if i need a different plan. Will report back.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Comparing the iphone to the inspire is not really fair as the iphone doesnt use the same apn settings, and they also have a reserved amount of bandwith set aside for iphones only. Not to mention they seem to go faster due to alot of things being cached on Apples servers which the iphone connects to first so it seems like they can pull data faster but it is not what it seems.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
Ah, I'm not the only one pulling down slower speeds than other devices. My GF's Infuse consistently pulls down 6-7 mbps while my Inspire, at the same time and location, will pull down 3-4. My build prop is edited, and I've tried other radios (and rils) with not much luck. Is this a device capability issue?

The only thing I haven't done is mess with APNs much. I feel as though it won't change anything, but eventually I'll try that as well.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
I would try that, As it can have a great impact on your connection. I could set you up with the old apn settings and you would pull edge speeds. So it only goes to reason that the APN settings might have a large thing to do with it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1.18.12:
Yeah. Most users speeds double
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
I'm going to look around at the speeds others are getting. I just can't seem to get more than 3-5 mbps. I know my area is capable of it because my GF's Infuse gets 5-8 mbps consistently, and at the same time I test mine. Weird.

I'll wait for compelling results before I change mine, because I've been modding heavily the last few days and I'm exactly not in the testing mood.
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
The day after I got my Inspire, I went to an A's game. The best I got on that trip was 1.5/0.35. A week later in Sac, in the parking lot of the Kaiser on Morse Avenue, I was able to pull 5.0/0.35. The best I got at home in Woodland was 3.0/0.35. I am now rooted, running ClearDroid, and get 4-5 down with upload better than 1. I'm still on my unlimited plan.
