Please try following the instructions on the FAQs thread by antony.ps, they are very clear and complete ->http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1065798

The only change you may have to do while following the instructions is to use the newest versions of CM7 and gapps, but otherwise, just follow them to the letter, and you should be alright :)
[Defy General] pituca292:
I SOLVED THE PROBLEM!

And it's very simple to solve... ¬¬'

I entered in the custom recovery, wiped all (data, cache, dalvik cache and battery stats), installed CM7 an GApps, Fixed permission and rebooted the phone!

And now, it's all working fine!!

I've tried all the fixes, it seem either 3.1 broke it completely. or is acers/google's implementation?

and if I ping north-america.pool.ntp.org from adb shell.. I get the correct dns data (or so I think) about one every 3 trys.

64.73.32.134 seems right but the other 2 are like

# ping north-america.pool.ntp.org

PING north-america.pool.ntp.org (216.144.229.211) 56(84) bytes of data.

64 bytes from armakuni.lastninja.net (216.144.229.211): icmp_seq=1 ttl=50 time=109 ms

# ping north-america.pool.ntp.org

PING north-america.pool.ntp.org (198.137.202.16) 56(84) bytes of data.

64 bytes from conquest.kjsl.com (198.137.202.16): icmp_seq=1 ttl=50 time=86.2 ms

which might just be theire backup round robin providers (the names just strike me as weird and Im too lazy to whois them lol)..

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kibbles-n-bits:
:mad:Well I will sum up my thoughts on the arrive and windows 7, no features what so ever. No file explorer, no sd card access, nothing on the phone can be accessed from a PC, no customizable features of any kind, no comm manager, no task manager, no ability to make changes to the phone, no way to use phone as a modem,no WiFi sharing capabilities, no registry editor, no free games, and the list just goes on and on. This is the ****tiest os I have ever seen. You can't do anything with this phone but browse the web and that's it, and you have no menus to change anything in internet explorer. The texting program is ridiculous. No menus to make changes or even attach a signature. text limit is 160 characters and no attachments allowed other than pictures

I have had this phone 2 days and it is going back to sprint as soon as they open. This is collaboratively the biggest pile of **** HTC and Microsoft have ever shoveled out. I would be embarrassed to put my name on this phone.

In the end it is Microsoft way of controlling what you do with your phone, its obvious because they give you no options or choices with this os. I want my TP2 back

:mad:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slapshot30:
One word, Android. 100 times more customizable than winmo ever was. Completely open source and development is booming. You don't want your TP2 back. Return the windows phone and get yourself a nice Android one. Evo Shift maybe? That has a nice keyboard and is sprint I believe. The Epic 4G has a beautiful screen and a keyboard. It isn't HTC's fault either. Just Microsoft for making the interface and everything about Windows Phone crap. They failed to evolve into this era with iOS and Android.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kibbles-n-bits:
I have the evo 4g picked out. Tonight is the last night of micro**** for me
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slapshot30:
The EVO is pretty nice. There is one and only one downfall to that phone though. The battery life. Don't be expecting much if you are a heavy or even mild user.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kibbles-n-bits:
well i tried the evo 4g for 30 days and returned them. sprint and htc has locked the boot loaders and they cannot be modified. look on the evo4g thread to see what i mean. IF YOU HAVE A TOUCH PRO 2 GAURD IT WITH YOUR LIFE. it is the last decent phone left the new phones i have tried are so locked up and secured you cant do anything.

According to the GPS test App I have 10/10 sats.......but the Google maps wont locate me and neither will other programs!!

G2x Deez Nuts
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jabhome:
When I run Get Position under the LocMgrPD Test Menu (1809#*999#) and it locks, then all my GPS apps, Navigation, Telenav, Waze, Maps, etc will work. However, Get Position will only find me 7 out 10 times. I added a Any Cut Activity to my desktop with a link direct to LocMgrPD so I could Get Position quick and bypass the 1809#*999# entry. This has been the only way I have been able to get Nav and GPS to sometimes work.

I hope the GB Update includes a fix for the GPS Driver and this is not a hardware issue. I suppose if it is hardware, once the GB Update is out I can always return the phone and get a new one under the warranty as the GPS should really work. This and a minor Screen Bleed have been the only flaws in what is now my 2nd G2X.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jabhome:
By the way, try to run the Get Position in the LocMgrPD. It does the same thing as GPS Test, but for me it locks, while GPS Test never does.

Below is from another XDA poster...

Nokia SUPL - locks in about 16 seconds (GPS Status)

1. Go into the LG hidden menu (1809#*999#)

2. Go into GPS Test

3. Go into System Settings

4. MOLR Protocol (is set to User-Plane)

5. SULP Setting -> SLP Server Setting, I created a new one for the nokia servers (slp address: supl.nokia.com, port: 7275, no cert and no TLS setting)

6. SLP Auto Provision is activated

Google SUPL - locks in about 7 seconds (GPS Status)

1. Go into the LG hidden menu (1809#*999#)

2. Go into GPS Test

3. Go into System Settings

4. MOLR Protocol (is set to User-Plane)

5. SULP Setting -> SLP Server Setting, I created a new one for the Google (slp address: supl.google.com, port: 7275, cert NULL and Yes to TLS setting)

6. SLP Auto Provision is activated

Note: I personally believe it has something to do with the SLP Auto Provision. Mine was off by default when i launched hiddenmenu.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
Its there a way to restore the LG menu to CM7 roms? Someone upload the hiddenmenu.apk maybe?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:
Thanks for this. Unfortunately, setting the SLP server to supl.google.com didn't help; it still took GPS Status 106 seconds for the first fix (which is very much in line with what I had been getting, and indicative of the AGPS data not being used). A couple of specific questions (which I realize you may not have the answers to, since you were quoting this from another poster):

The MOLR protocol button is grayed-out on my phone, so I have no idea whether it's set to User-Plane or C-Plane. Is there anything I need to do to enable this button?

Also, the supl.google.com instructions say "cert NULL" -- does that mean putting the exact characters N U L L into that box, or leaving it empty, or something else?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jabhome:
Yep, beyond my pay grade, no idea how these phones actually work. I left Cert blank and my MOLR was grayed too.

I wish someone with knowledge of how this phone actually worked would respond to the GPS issue threads, but everyone around here seems to be preoccupied with arguing over the merits of a G2x and Sendation.

I'm not surprised.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Couple of comments:

1) You don't get to compare 3g and 4g, sorry.

2) T-mobile and At&t have HSPA. That's just not a fair comparison to CDMA 3g.

3) What good is speed if you only get a few GB a month?

4) Sprint has been subject to a network overload in a lot of areas, which is known and an issue they're working on.

Also, I'm happy about this.

This makes it painfully obvious to Sprint what the focus should be.

And hopefully will get us faster speeds well... faster.
[EVO 4G General] faugnom1:
wow at verisons speed
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
1-then compare 3g to 3g, sprint still loses.

2- and that's a excuse? it's slower by a lot. doesn't matter why.

3- a ton of people are grand fathered into unlimited plans on att and big v. sour grapes? better get in while you still can.

4- more excuses.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
1. All CDMA networks lose.

2. Not an excuse, just a reality.

3. Grandfathering on this will not last, I promise you.

4. An explanation, not an excuse.

By your responses and attitude I see that you're here to troll/cause trouble, not discuss.
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
1- sprint loses the worse.

i'm sprint user but i wont bend over and take it up the ass. we are paying $10 and what do we get? worse 3g speeds than even cricket. stop being a damn apologist for sprint.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
What's that about?:rolleyes::confused:

Sorry you refuse to look at the reality because you just want to dump on a company about a petty $10 that gives you unlimited usage instead of this tiered, limited garbage.
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
compare coverage maps for lte, wimax, and hspa+, all three (att, tmo, verizon) are higher than sprint's wimax. roll your eyes all you want but all things added wimax is not even faster than tmo hspa 3g or have as much coverage. att's hspa has more coverage and is almost as fast. and verizons 3g has way more coverage and is faster, plus has more lte coverage and kills wimax.

you can still get unlimited data on verizon and they have come out and said you can upgrade without fear of losing the unlimited plan. tmo has unlimited data but a 5gb throttle cap but is still cheaper. att is a dead but who cares, it's att.
[EVO 4G General] tempe38:
And on the other hand, what good is unlimited data when you can't do anything with it due to how slow it is?

I think the comparison to AT&T and T-Mobile is perfectly fair, they're the actual speeds you can get, not just some theoretical Sprint is better under some ideal conditions that don't exist in the real world.

Having said that, I do share your hope that this will inspire Sprint to get those upgrades moving.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
So go to whomever you feel is better man, you're welcome to do that.

The fact is this, this comparison is silly and completely deluding reality.

Also, the mere suggestion that T-mobile's coverage could even be anywhere close to equal to the big three is ridiculous.

There is no such thing as 4g. It does NOT exist.

4g is 100 mbit/s and a completely VOIP network.

So if you're going to compare these networks you have to do so as follows:

Verizon LTE

Sprint WiMax

T-Mobile

At&t

Now, is Sprint losing right now in coverage? Yes. No one is denying that.

But the idea of comparing Sprint's Evdo and T-mobile's HSPA is just ridiculous.

Why don't we compare T-mobile's EDGE and Verizon LTE? :rolleyes:

Oh look, T-mobile lost! :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
your dumb. really you are. i'm not even joking.

look at the results. read them slow.

tmo hspa 3g > sprint evdo 3g

you cry boohoo, life isn't fair, sprint is too cheap for rev b which still cant be as fast.

but then...

tmo hspa 3g > sprint wimax

oh ****! you have no point.

and i never mentioned the word 4g at all.
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
But, if you compare Sprint's wimax and Tmob's HSPA, Sprint still loses.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
I'm dumb because you buy into the labels "3g" and "4g"?

Again...:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure that compared with the actual standards of 3g...no one even has 3g in this country.

Didn't I say that? ;)

They do beat At&t though.
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
i don't know if you noticed but i call them by what they are - evdo, hspa/+, edge, lte, wimax, etc. i might throw in bs mainstream labels in there but i know what they really are and what the reality is. your just reaching for whatever argument you can cause you clearly cant accept that you have no point.
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
barely, and att launches lte later this year. att sucks but they will trump sprints data speeds.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Listen, just because you make the claim that I "have no point" doesn't make it accurate.

You cannot compare apples and oranges.

That's my point.

The end.

And you base that on....?

I'm sorry guys, I fed a troll.

My bad.

I'm done. Enjoy.
[EVO 4G General] peegle:
No one that I know goes around saying Sprint has the biggest, baddest network around. In fact, I think my friends generally think otherwise. Is the service passable? Yes, because it works for my needs. Plus, this chart should compare pricing which in my opinion, is a valuable figure for this chart.

If you don't like Sprint service, you can cancel. Free up space for the rest of us. You don't need to be a jerk about it all.
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
Hmmm...

Um..no. Unless that is what you meant by

But if it was, that was not at all clear.
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
so you're telling me that wimax is not the same as lte, and that evdo isn't the same as hspa+? holy ****, you're a mother f'n genuis. that would have never occurred to me! thanks mattykinsx!

[EVO 4G General] Beejis:
Hahaha, I'm with you. My data is fine. Sucks for those who can't say the same though. I use 8gb a month on average from my phone without tethering, so true unlimited is what I need and Sprint is the ONLY service that provides that.

YOu never know lol he might not be a troll, just an idiot.....lol but yeah wow haha.

[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:

[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:

If you use [an disclosed amount of data] your speeds are throttled to slowwww for the remainder of that bill cycle and the next bill cycle.

I just switched from Sprint to Verizon last week and I can tell you first hand that 3G vs 3G, verizon is faster. I average between .2 and .5 mbps pretty much all the time on Sprint with occassional spike to 1mpbs (and very rarely). Verizon 3G I average around .7mpbs - 1.5 mbps with occassional spikes from 2-2.5 mbps. I don't care about reports or anything, just what I have experienced. I am not on a farm either, I live in twin cities metro area.

I'll take the speeds as a fair trade, for a few reasons.

1. My data is still unlimited, even if I were to sign a new contract tomorrow.

2. Here in Toledo and the Michigan as far as smartphones go, Sprint and Verizon I've had the best results with. But, Verizon is a little bit more, and going to cap data soon...

3. As long as I get fast enough speeds to tether my phone to my laptop on the go for Netflix(Surprisingly I do), I'm completely okay with this.

4. With Sprint, I actually feel I'm getting a good deal for what I'm paying. Unlimited talk(To any mobile device, text, and web?! With my discount about $60 a month?! Most of the time I'm using wifi unless I'm on the road?! I'm okay with how this works out.
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
Don't get me wrong, I am neither a sprint apologist, nor a sprint basher. I am a bit frustrated with speeds right now, as I have been averaging less than 200k during peak times (450-550 during off peak), but I am confident that they will get this fixed. I just hope it is sooner rather than later.
[EVO 4G General] wfrandy:
This is no surprise to me.

It is frustrating to me that Sprint's 3G service sucks so bad. I am often asked for tech advise by my friends, and I have a hard time recommending Sprint, even though I still like Sprint best over all. At my house my speeds are so bad I often can't even download the simplest apps from the market. I put up with that though because, on Sprint's coverage map, 3G coverage ends at the other side of the street from my house. At work, on the other hand, my speeds are usually adequate, as my shop is only about four blocks from the tower. But last week my speeds at work went down to 15-60 kbs, so after two days of that I called Sprint. The nice lady on the phone told me that the tower I was on was reporting 100% 3G speeds and 99% completed connections. As the conversation went on she went into sales pitch mode and said the thing that most pisses me off, "on Sprint you get unlimited data". As I told her, an unlimited amount of something unusable is still nothing. So, after talking to her, I got into my car and drove over to the tower and got a whopping 324 kbs, 50 feet from the tower. In the end, after two more days of little or no 3G data service, it finally went back up to around 800 kbs on average. I guess that tower must be running at 1000% now.

The main problem for me with Sprints 3G service is it's unreliability. I would be happy with 500 kbs, if I could get that all of the time. The problem is it changes by the minute. If I do three speed tests in a row, it is actually unusual if they are within 300 kbs of each other, and often will vary from 150 kbs to as much as 1.2 mbs in a matter of a few minutes. My wife's work supplied AT&T phone on the other hand, Gets within 200 kbs of 2.0 mbs, any time, both at home and at work.

Am I going to leave Sprint over it? No, at least not for a while. But, while I have totally given up ever seeing the 4G I was promised that would be here "by the end of the year" when I got my Evo on launch day, I keep hoping that sprint will at least get their 3g fixed to a usable enough level that I can justify staying with them when I am ready to trade in my Evo in six months or so.
