[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcdudley:
I am just wondering if I should update my kernel? I have been rooted since day one and I don't believe I have ever accepted any updates. I have also been running the MikG 2.1 rom for many months. The kernel I currently have is 4.54.651.1. I saw that I can download 4.67.651.3. I know there are also lots of others out there.

Will there be a big advantage to this, or should I just leave it alone. I am about to update to the MikG 3.1 rom in a few minutes is the reason I am looking.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottspa74:
Every rom you flash comes with a kernel, or it wouldn't boot. Just flash the mik rom you want, it will have what you need.

Now if you wanna ask about updating your radio, that's a whole different thing, and depending on how old your radio is, it is possible you may need to update your radio. But I'm guessing since you're on a relatively recent rom already, you won't have an issue with your current radio.

The only time I read that I HAD to update my radio to flash a particular rom was when the rom was built off a new OTA (going from froyo to GB), I believe. But that may have not even been true/necessary.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grizraz:
You shouldn't "need" to update kernel. Many kernels available do have some improvements over the stock in regards to lower voltage for better battery performance, ability to over clock, other performance tweaks as well as hdmi stuff. Maybe none of those features will interest you but the option is there, flash a custom kernel and if you don't like it, flash the stock kernel. User experiences vary, you are the best judge of performance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detcup4evr:
I was unsure about flashing a kernel for a while, it can be a little intimidating but u won't regret upgrading your Kernel. I eventually moved onto building my own kernel.

If you looking for a good sense kernel I would recommend Lionfish. Freedom and Chop Suey also are good kernels.

The dev of TetherGPS has finally release an update to fix FC on ICS/CM9 devices.

I've waited a long time for this. Now I can use my Nook in the car as a Navigation device!

Go to Android Market to get update:).

My awesome gps setup is the following on a CM7.2 Mirage KANG NC:

GPS Receiver: Tom Tom Mkii (got for a lot cheaper, I think it was about 8 bucks).

Android APPs: Bluetooth GPS

Sygic GPS Navigation

This setup works awesome it has been very reliable so far, the receiver takes very little time to find the satelites. My in car setup is super cheap but it works, I use velcro with an old NC case to stick it to the windshield. :)
[Nook Color General] jdpdata:
cool setup...I haven't tried Sygic yet. Currently usiing Google Map and sometimes switch to Waze for the fun factor. How does Sygic compare to the other two navigation software? I see that it offers offline map data, which is a plus since I'm on limited Data plan.
[Nook Color General] jgaf:
Yeah the offline maps is a plus for me since I don't have a smartphone to tether 3G or 4G. For me it has worked pretty good, the POIs aren't all there, but I'm in Puerto Rico. There are a couple of other GPS apps that are supposedly good, like Copilot (I tried this one but the map for Puerto Rico was incomplete). The other thing is that Sygic uses google to search for POIs too if you have internet connection, so for your it might be a good choice since it will only use very little data searching for stuff, and you would have an offline map.
[Nook Color General] Snoshrk:
I am using almost the exact same setup... only diff is Navfree USA.
[Nook Color General] Peoplephobic:
I would love to see a walkthrough on how to use the nook as a car gps.

My iPhone just seems tiny after i use my nook for a while.
[Nook Color General] iolinux333:
Step 1: buy nook color

Step 2: wait a month for cyanogenmod to implement bluetooth in CM

Step 3: try to get a windows mobile 6 phone to send the GPS data via bluetooth for a month or so, pull out half of hair.

Step 4: try to get a symbian OS phone to send the GPS data via bluetooth for a month or so, pull out other half of hair.

Step 5: before committing suicide, just bite the bullet & buy first AndroidOS phone. Discover that Android on a phone is amazing. Discover that most Android phone hardware sucks.

Step 6: buy four more AndroidOS phones, discover huge horrible unfixable hardware design issues with each, discover bank account drained.

Step 7: find exactly one android phone with only one hardware issue (wifi range sucks), but otherwise is perfect (Droid RAZR) WE WILL NOT DISCUSS LOCKED BOOTLOADER ISSUE, THIS IS NOT A HARWARE PROBLEM. AHHHHH!!

Step 8: After having no money left, having spent it all on bad android phones, decide that the four dollars or whatever TetherGPS costs is too expensive.

Step 9: Suddenly remember the reason there is no money left, was to try to get GPS to work on the Nook Color

Step 10: Spend the four dollars, install TetherGPS on both phone and Nook, it just works (TM). Use whatever GPS software you please, there is plenty to choose from.
[Nook Color General] jdpdata:
^^^ although funny, it's not all that difficult to get NC as a GPS device.

1. Your Android phone must be rooted. And it must support Infrastructure Mode tethering. I've had success with CM7 and Miui based roms.

2. Download and install Android-Wifi-Tether v. 3.1 beta 11. Google it you will find it. Once you have it installed test to make sure you can successfully tether.

3. Buy and install TetherGps both on phone and NookColor.

4. Start Tethergps as server on phone. The icon will turn blue when it has good gps lock.

5. Start tethergps as client on NookColor. Again icon will turn blue once gps is located.

6. Open your fav navigation app (Google maps is very good) you should see a blue dot at your current location.

This has been my setup for awhile now. Works great!

I notice your list doesn't mention battery life. In that case, isn't 6-10 hours on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus hitting your Holy Grail in a meet-or-exceed sort of way?

[LG Optimus Black] stefan0325:
Is there a fix for the problem with the soft button lights yet? They always turned off on the stock ROM and also on Zeus ROM. I am now using CM7 and the lights work, but the rest of the ROM is crap. I need a reliable phone that I can also use in the dark. Thanks!
[LG Optimus Black] Zaihanzainal:
the lights issue is a gb issue until now there is no real fix for it (unless till lg releases a patch or sth)

for the time being you could try this app i tried it and sometimes it works sometimes it dosent..... =P

but i dont think its a big problem anyway.... its just 4 buttons at the bottom... =)
[LG Optimus Black] jimakos29:
it is not an issue or bug... it is a feature of gb for saving battery implemend by lg... It's been the same with o3d and I think with 2x as well(not sure about the 2x though). Now the fact that some people don't like it doesn't make it a bug,does it?
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
It is a bug, since the support already confessed, it is. If you buy a phone with a function, like lights always on and that feature gets lost after an update, what do you call it? Feature (like LG) or bug? I would call it a bug, but I think we could keep on discussing a whole week or even longer. I at least would like to have a choice, whether to enable it or not. That's all I can say to this. And since they already work on a bugfix, they either really implemented a bug, or a "feature" hardly anyone wants to have.

That would be a feaure, what we have is a bug.
