- the modem has slight impact of gps performance - have not noticed diff betwen jve(jv1) and jvr

- the gps.conf tweaks does not affect gps much

- the firmware itself contains some files that boos significantly gps performance (snr, ttff, birds count) those are few files here and there on system that all together makes gps working ok. that is the case in jvp jvq and jvr - still gps likes to travel own way sometimes (google navigation tested and other apps like my tracks)

DO NOT USE ANY OF THOSE WONDER/PAID APPS FROM MARKET - MORE OR LESS A SCAM TO MAKE YOU PAY THE MONEY FOR APP

if you have problems with gps on jvp/jvq/jvr that means:

- your theme/rom maker screwed up those importnt files

- your firmware instalation is not correct

- you have some hardware issue -> use warranty to replace faulty unit

this is how gps behaves not even under clear sky but at window

@The BigX: thanks, been doing that since Éclair :D

@$omator: I always try to flash ROMs and kernels properly (flash stock first, etc), and all the Roms I've been using have been pretty flawless in everything else but the GPS... Thing is, in GPS Status or GPS Test I get pretty good locks, even when driving (SNR over 30 for most of them, even 10 m accuracy).

It just seems like... Google Maps or Navigation don't access the same data or something, and it takes forever for a ****ty lock that lasts 4 seconds and is accurate to 50 m.

Gonna try Aura tomorrow.

Thanks for the help, guys.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] $omator:
was using google navigation as a car navigation, phone 'was' on front windscreen

lock was fast and more or less acurate - with problems on roads with woods around (that was very lol when i enetered the forest fix was going from 5 to 50 meters) - but 99% of time stayed on the road wo problems

it is well known problem with the chip used in sgs1 - same one is used by various devices like apple and htc ones with same ****ty results on all - so most likley the chip is just crap=)

I am getting a bit peed off with my stock froyo tab it random reboots and doesn't turn on properly at times I have the p1000 uk GSM not wifi only I dont mind what I run asking as it is fast as hell, I have a nexus s so its a bit mad switching from devices at times.

Thanks xda
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] odysseus84:
Take the Overcome expiriance. It feels very fast and smooth. Everything works without any issues and the community support (if you need it) is great. At the moment Alterbridge does not stop his developing (next version of his rom is in the oven) so we will get more and more performance. :-)

PS: for a nexus S look you can flash the GreengerBlack theme.

I came from overcome to dip7's rom and I can tell you that it is faster but it's closer to stock. Overcome has icons that look cool for some people but i like dip7's rom better.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyt3rry:
Cool thanks for the replys guys quick question if I was to flash it is there anything or any builds for the uk model as there is so many different types of tab models. I don't want a brick
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] odysseus84:
If you make your choise for overcome, the installation will be easy as sleep. You just have to follow the guide on "teamovercome.net". The Rom is made for GSM Tabs like yours. It's allmost impossible to brick the Tab.

For both roms you must flash stock gingerbread. Here is the guide I used cos i was a bigger noob then:

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ani55:
The honeycomb rom by spacemoose1 is not complete yet. The last build he released was about 3 months ago. I tested it and it was laggy and many things were broken. I recommend gingerbread for now until spacemoose1 gets onto a better stage of his build.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyt3rry:
I really appreciate all the replys, ever since I got my nexus s I joined this site and I've never known a community to be so helpfull. I will go with the overcome, I watched the YouTube video of honeycomb it doesn't have the acceleration looks good but I'd rather have the "smooth as butter flash" I will hopefully flash before or after work tonight and will report back :)

Overcome or CM7 ?

I can see that overcome is pretty popular. I dont hear anybody touting CM7; I've got CM7 running on an HTC Desire HD and an LG Optimus One, and I'm pretty happy with it -- much better that the stock ROM, and on the O1, probably the nicest ROM out there. I'm just wondering a bit how much better worse it is compared to Overcome ?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyt3rry:
I used to like cm7 but it is buggy as he'll Evan the last release was on my nexus s id have times where my screen would look like a burnt in screen animation, I would have to reboot all the time best roms i've used on my nexus is stock and miui only problem with miui us is the keyboard vibration don't work
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ani55:
Overcome has better browser. Cm7 is more buggy.

I just got a T-Mobile version of TAB,

I'd like to flash to Gingerbread, or a rom which supports Gtalk video and Skype,

What are some of your suggestions?

Thank you

Definitely what you want. I've been an Overcome fan for a while now, been very happy with it.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getihga54:
I use Overcome since version 2.0.0 RC1. In my opinion it is the best ROM for the Gtab 7". It is fast, does not have too much bugs and the support by Team Overcome is very good. The development of the ROM is fast and continually.

Not to forget the very good installation instruction and the Change Log for every new version of the ROM.

Not sure where to post this so I thought I would try here. So Virgin Mobile just had a huge data outage. All day yesterday my wife's and my phonehave no 3G. Today my wife has hers back (not rooted) and my phone still has no 3G (running bumblebee rom) (Both optimus v's) Is this normal that she got hers and I still not have mine?

Thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V General] reziplikant:
I don't understand your question. Do you mean that the two phones don't have a 3g connection, or just one phone have a 2g and the other phone a 3g???

If you have got the same operator service, same phone and your partner has 3G and you haven't (in same location), then the only thing that can matter is software-ROM.

Doesn't matter we sprint techs don't go by the litmus paper anymore anyway. At some point if the liquid corrodes your circuit board, or sits standing somewhere in your phone w/o evaporating, it is then we will deem it Damaged Beyond Repair.

Funny about water damage..i know people that just say it was lost now
[Motorola Photon 4G] twospirits:
In the Atrix the water indicator is on the inside of the back plate, and if you look closely at the breakdown of the Photon in this video below, it seems that at time index 2:00 you also see a red looking water mark below the round disc at the bottom of the back plate.

At time index 2:44 it seems that on the circuit board itself it looks like there are 8 strips, but I can't tell if they are water indicators.

Bottom line, I doubt Sprint Tech would go through all this trouble to dismantle the Photon to see if the water indicator (if that's what those things are) do show any water damage.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Jeff_in_LA:
I am within the 30 days, I wonder if they will tear down the phone. Normally, I got a replacement fast.

I'm going to borrow my friends battery and try.

If they do bomb it out, can I pay the deductible and get a new one right there?
[Motorola Photon 4G] lcpl:
I had know Idea that it was like that. I be more aware of that in the future, although I have never thrown a fit over it. Can we have a little more insight on your quotas, just to better understand?
[Motorola Photon 4G] lcpl:
"This budget includes all of the phones that we receive from the factory that are already defective and have to bounce back to order another, which I've been fighting since day one."

Can I get a little more clarification on this?

Do sprint stores go threw techs like theirs no tomorrow? I always give 5*, unless someone from ACS wants to lie to me and said they have taken care of something and it takes talking to 3 others to get it cleared up.

How can techs be held responsible for unrepairable phones. Do you just limit the tickets that are processed for repairs until a tech can determine weather or not the phone can be fixed?

Just curious, been with sprint since 2002, and I feel the more one knows how a company works, the better it is on working with customer service.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lcpl:
Wow. I feel your frustration. Why can't the manufacture/or warehouse be held more responsible for what they ship as a "New or Refurbished Phones". And why are their not more "loner phones" to keep exchange rates down, until a phone can be repaired. I know overhead has to be kept down, but having 50 to 75 loner phones would be ideal, wouldnt it?

Is it possible to have customer service take the hit on these promises that it can be exchanged? And "like for like" phones seems like a waste of resources.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lcpl:
I got a couple of more question but I will just PM you tomorrow. I don't want to change the focus of the thread.

Thank you for the insight.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
I feel your pain. We do 7-800 ticket a month with only FT two techs and one part timer. The last thing we need is defective replacements. The joke in my shop is that "Does it work" is not on the checklist.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lookout4theyeti:
qft! I cant believe how many defective units come in, and my store is only 6 months old - were not super busy but still see a large number of bounces.
[Motorola Photon 4G] squshy 7:
This is why I'm a tech for a corporate store :)

We process just as many phones, but our metrics are a little easier. CSAT is only 73%, ReadyNow isn't even a metric as far as techs are concerned, and exchanges aren't budgeted as a gross total, we just can't allow our exchange rate to go above 35%. We also have the Slate diagnostics test, which we have to hit 50% being run on compatible devices.

That being said, I've only been with sprint since the end of june, and I've hit these numbers and then some without really trying. Individually I've worked on about 150 phones this month, and the other two techs are also right around that number, with even better metrics.
[Motorola Photon 4G] TheNexxuvas:
Those numbers are changing again. That said, you can only imagine what mine look like at a store like mine that does 2000+ tickets a month, and this is my 7th year, I'm pre-merger Sprint. I amaze myself at keeping my exchange rate under 22% each month. I hit 18% at one point last year...but I harvest like a mad scientist and I still solder things with my lvl 3 cert. And no one gets Lvl 3 certified anymore.

On top of that, we are a Discovery Store, so our direct line of management is about 2 rings under direction of Dan Hesse himself. So you can imagine the programs WE run.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bamastang:
Don't know if your question has truly been answered, but on the Atrix there are 3 water sensors that I personally know of... I took a swim with my phone about 2 months ago... It is working perfectly to this day except for the front facing camera. There is one on the battery. One behind the back cover next to the sim card and memory card... And one on the underside of the motherboard closest to the camera. You have to loosen the motherboard completely to see this one. Hope this helps. I know it is where the Atrix's are located, but may help.
[Motorola Photon 4G] my2cents:
This thread is definitely interesting reading. In fact, it made me pop open the back of my phone for the first time (I've had my phone for about 5 days). I was surprised to see that the battery indicator has red + symbols because the phone is so new and I have not had it anywhere near water (no, really).

It makes me wonder if the other water sensors are also tripped. I purchased the phone at Best Buy and they put it all together for me, otherwise I probably would have noticed it before. Should I ask Best Buy to replace the phone, or just the battery? Not sure where I should go from here. Every thing works perfectly...
[Motorola Photon 4G] drfosters:
Red plus symbols are fine, when it gets triggered it goes completely red. Depending in the sticker is how it works. The fully white ones contain the ink behind the first layer of the sticker, on the ones with red plus signs, the ink is contain in the actual symbols.
[Motorola Photon 4G] my2cents:
I see. Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize that there were different types. That makes me feel better. Just to clarify, do the white ones go completely red too when triggered?

[Epic 4G General] VooDooOmen:
Greetings All,

I've been running the title line ROM for several days now and am impressed with it in general. This sucker uses next to nothing in terms of juice when the screen is off and when my Epic is "sleeping". I've been getting an average of 38 hours with my useage; by comparison, on stock I would be lucky to see 22 hours. On SRF ROMs for example, I would average 28 hours (which I was pleased with)...but got bit by the damn flashing bug and, as much as I say "hmmm, I'll stick with this one", well :rolleyes:

It's pretty important for me to get a minimum of 24hrs of battery time on my phone due to my schedule, convenience (or lack of) with charging opportunities away from home. SRF ROMs have been really good for that; Hawk has garnered 10 more hours, most excellent.

The flash went great, no issues, I haven't experienced any FC's, the apparent memory leakage has been minimal, and most everything I need to work does. My data speeds (using EG22) are the same crappy speeds, tried EF, EG and EH modems that were either worse in some area or battery drainers. The ROM itself is snappy, good looking, and did I mention the battery life is great? :D

I only have one issue: A couple of apps I use to have are no longer "available" on the provided version of the market ("Black Market"). One of them is a paid app that I used every day, is pretty important for my job and is kind of a deal breaker (custom shift calendar/time tracking/scheduling app). I'm sure it has something to do with either the market version or perhaps even GB and not the fault of the ROM...so no slams whatsoever directed to it or to RandomKing.

Is it possible to flash a different Android Market version? I would imagine it depends on what phone signature it sees as to availability of apps(?).

Also, just as an aesthetic thing, I very much liked the on-screen keyboard that was provided with shane's Dark Horse theme...would it be possible to pull that apk, pop it into my system folder and run it on this ROM?

Anyways, great ROM RK (if you read this), thank you very much for your efforts. If I can get my app issue resolved, this will be my daily driver for quite some time.

Aww who am I kiddin'...it'll be my daily until that damn flashing itch overcomes my will :cool:
[Epic 4G General] turbosocks:
I am newish to the whole 'flashing' thing, but this is my third ROM and so far I am loving it much more than the others. Thanks RK!!

battery life seems great..

runs very smoothly

like the font

like that the kernel comes with the ROM

fast

haven't had any re-boot issues (that i know of)
[Epic 4G General] EddyBalls:
do NOT quote me on this, but i had a similar problem back when i owned an OG droid. My market sucked balls and started to FC a lot, and sometimes when i would flash a new ROM it wouldn't see some apps. What i did was downloaded the default GAPPS zip and extract the APK and install it. easy, and it fixed this. also, with the keyboard thing, i'm not sure. i'd imagine you'd have to find a zip to flash it. but the keyboard is through an APK as well...so go to the system/app folder and extract it see if that works? again, don't quote me on this stuff, i'm probably totally wrong.
[Epic 4G General] sirj00:
Have to agree. Fantastic rom everything works to perfection. Although my battery

life is not near what everybody claims.
[Epic 4G General] sirj00:
Yes the font the snappiness of the phone even though the benchmarks don't equal

the performance.
[Epic 4G General] EddyBalls:
yea. people claim to have like over 9000 hours of battery life. the only way i achieve this is by turning off 3g whenever i don't use it which is like, 60% of my day. he achieves the battery saving by disabling a lot of stuff that's kinda important to most. like email notifications and stuff...but meh, it works. Random Hawk is a beast. can't wait for his actual release once source gets leaked since this is Alpha.
[Epic 4G General] galland1:
Nice Rom

Been on this one for a few days. It's a good one.:)
[Epic 4G General] turbosocks:
Im at 15h 26m 55s and @ 53% battery life right now.

I started with fresh battery stats by booting to CWM and resetting the stats right after it was fully charged..

Wifi and email notifications are ALWAYS on. I spent about a half hour on the phone so far, turned alarm on, downloaded about 10 apps, played ~30 minutes of angry birds last night and checked my mail about every 20 minutes (when I was awake of course) Also spent some time texting.

Also OC'd to 1.2 Ghz

This is A LOT better battery life than I usually get.

The reason I am not connected to Wifi is because I just got to work and haven't logged into the network yet!
[Epic 4G General] RandomKing:
I have wifi, 3G, and 1 hour email notifications at all times. I only disable google sync. But that's only because I use stock mail rather than the gmail app and don't synchronize my calendar.

[Epic 4G General] VooDooOmen:
Well, I've got my issues resolved and this ROM is flyin'. Definately a keeper.

@Eddyballs

Went a 'round about way to get my missing apps installed (MyBackupRoot is a beautiful thing), now all is good. Keyboard was a bust...once I got the apk installed, it just FC'ed. No biggie. Went to the Market and got a GB keyboard (unthemed) and now it's somewhat to my liking (I don't care much for the Swype keyboard). Thanks for your input.

@turbosocks

Damn good numbers! :)

@ RandomKing

Thanks again sir for an excellent ROM. Can't wait to try your next build!
[Epic 4G General] EddyBalls:
Stock email is good, but ya I've turned off google sync too and I get better battery life. Wifi's policy is great, and 3g is ok. Sometimes 3g uses more battery than wifi. Its odd but yea. Oh and I kinda hate to bring it up here, but since you're here Mr. RandomKing, the rom keeps resetting on me at times. I'll send a txt to someone sometimes and I get that triple vibrating thing, then my phone resets. Not fully but softly. It happens at random too, not just with txts.

lol my Epic made you look
[Epic 4G General] EddyBalls:
Np, im just hating myself for not being that helpful. I wish I knew more. Someday, someday... but glad you got yourself up and running. If you want a better keyboard I can upload my flashable gb-kb? Its my favorite so far and its not stock either. Its modded ;)
