[Desire Android Development] Souldrinker:
Thought I could summarize my issues during my first couple of days on 0.5.1 which is my first non-Sense ROM since I got my Desire in 2010 (have previously been using LeeDroid & Seb's AIO).

First of all I want to thank for the effort in making this nice rom. I thought I couldn't do without Sense and even though some things seems better in Sense this ROM is really nice and I would like to use it as my daily rom. I'm however still considering since there is a couple of bugs/annoyances that bugs me, but maybe you guys here can give some input of how to remedy them...

BSOD:

All three days while I was on stock kernel the phone seem to freeze up during the nightly charge. All three mornings the screen was black, no matter what I tried. First day the led was blue (maybe due to a BankDroid update which seem to give blue light with this rom?), second day the led was flashing green and orange which I've never seen before and the third day it was green, but otherwise the phone seemed dead and needed a battery pull to get going again. This seem to be a general issue and seem to have been solved by reflashing the ROM with the Tiamat kernel, so this morning the phone was alive after nightly charge :-)

Hotmail:

The hotmail app only works for a couple of hours after setting up, after that trying to start it just throws you back to the launcher. Also every now and then a popup that Hotmail has stopped working comes up when doing something else. Clearing the data and setting up the account again fixes it for a couple of hours and then the same again. I've tried both with push and 30 minute checks, but same behavior. Quite annoying, but maybe not a showstopper. This also seem like a common issue here.

Waze:

Wase only works to a certain degree. Opening it up and just driving around without using navigation works fine, but as soon as trying to navigate somewhere or enter the settings screen it throws you back to the launcher every time. This has also been reported by others here and is also annoying since I usually use it everyday to and from work to find the optimum route (depending on traffic I can save a couple of minutes by following Waze advices regarding alternate routes). Also annoying, but not a showstopper.

Streaming TV:

After putting my son to bed I sometimes watch streaming Swedish TV on the phone, but this doesn't seem to work good with this rom. When trying to use the TV4Play app the tv commercials show fine, but as soon as the real playback is about to start it just quits the tv show and for some reason the Subsonic player starts playing music(?!). With the Kanal5Play app or by using the web browser to watch the shows by browsing to tv4play.se or svtplay.se the playback works, but both audio and video is so slow and choppy that it's completely unwatchable. Not sure if this is also a common issue or not?

GPS:

Sometimes when I try to use the GPS (in Waze, Google Maps, c:geo etc.) the GPS doesn't seem to find a fix. The navigation just jumps between towers and only for brief moments show the correct position and at those times it just stops there for a few seconds until it starts to jump between towers again. I've tried driving for 30+ minutes when this happens, but it never seem to get a fix until I restart the phone. After restarting it usually finds a fix within seconds as before. Initially I tried stock GPS and after flashing the rom again I selected aGPS, but same behavior. I can't really find a pattern for when this happens, but it happens too often to be a one time thing. This is the most annoying issue in this rom since I use the GPS a lot for navigation, runkeeper (when exercising) and c:geo (for geocaching) and having to restart the phone when starting any of these activities is really annoying. I will keep trying out the gps and see how often this happens and if I can see a pattern, but if you have some nice hints regarding how to fix this I would be really grateful.

None of the above issues existed on the previous roms I tried.

As a side note I still seem to get freezes with this rom when in low reception areas, but that I had since last summer on all roms I tried since I replaced my broken kingston sd card for a 16gb sandisk class 4 card, so this is probably a hardware issue rather than rom related.
