On all the HC ROMs, GPS works but not fully. It will pick up an initial fix , work for a about 30 seconds, then reset and may or may not fix again. Its fine if you just need to know current location, but not good if you try to use navigation.

No one has come up with a bug fix yet. The rapid fix helps, but may not fully solve your problem.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Yeah I had the same issue. Wonder if a third party navigation app might fix the issue
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
It may have been that the cached local map data was just not bumped out of memory yet, and you didn't travel outside that initially cached area. You can do this to some degree on any device with Google Maps, AFAIK. You just have to be careful not to open too many apps and whatnot.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] shirtlessrabbit4:
yes, hc needs upgrades for gps, something in the system makes it crash after a minute. possibly an upcoming small ota from htc to fix this?

I edited the Beatles Day Tripper to make a 7 second wav file that replaces the swoosh sound that plays with the AT&T 3G animation.

How to do:

1. Make a backup of the existing

/system/etc/PowerOn.wav file.

2. With any file explorer that can remount system r/w, rename DayTripperPowerOn.wav to

PowerOn.wav and copy the file to

/system/etc folder.

Here is the link to the file on dropbox

Ok, in the past (2 years on my vibrant, a month so far on the gnex) it has always been true that the battery drain was much much less when connected to wifi than when not.

I noticed the last couple of days my battery has drained faster htan expected. Not insane drain, just faster.

Today I have been at home all day except for a quick run to the grocery store. I noticed that I only lost like 2 percent the whole trip to the store and back.

When I got home I sat the phone down for an approximately equal length of time. I lost about 10 percent.

No difference in apps running, didn't turn the screen on any more, etc. Only difference I am aware of was that I was connected to wifi.

I feel like I a missing something. Any ideas?

AOKP build 30, franco nightly 121, since I am sure you will ask. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JayDaKissEP:
I was getting really bad battery drain on Franco 121. If you have his app from the market download the lean kernel stable 3.0.0. It's the best battery I have had in a long time. I'm using interactivex governor too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
I still get better battery life staying on wifi with my phone just like previous phones. Maybe it was just a one time glitch from an app misbehaving. Test more to confirm.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Winklie:
The dreaded face unlock bug. I have been experiencing this for several days now, on and off with no particular rhyme or reason. I'll explain the bug. I press the power key to enable the phone, after 2 or 3 seconds the camera comes on, this is where is gets sticky. Sometimes it does not recognize me (like if I have my glasses on, or a hat) and gives me the keyboard to enter the pin. Other times it just dies, picture still on the screen, no combination of buttons unfreezes the phone, I have to yank the battery and start all over again.

I am rooted running Phone Bricker 2.1, stock kernel, and everything else, although I was going to try a different modem, apparently in my area a different modem works better.

I've seen numerous posts on the international version of our phone but nothing for the I-777, do I have a phone problem, or is this just an expected errata from running 'leaked' software?

Also are there any fixes anyone is aware of? I love the face unlock feature and I guess I could disable it.

One clue that might shed some light on the subject, as soon as I unlock my phone, if I use the pull down menu and mess with Wifi at all, the phone all but dies. It does recover but it takes awhile.

Thanks for any insight or a link I missed.

And happy Easter!

Wink
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
Phone-Bricker is not based on the leak, its from i9100 LP3 (o2 carrier) base.

Not sure what the face unlock bug is but I tried it before without any problems.

Try using Entropy's latest kernel named Zombie Ass! ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kristikaty:
I am running Phone Bricker and also use the Face Unlock feature, with no problems whatsoever. But then, I've only had my phone since Friday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Winklie:
I was able to find the Kernel, thanks again.

Thank you my friend.

Wink
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
Were you over/under clocking?

I don't think the ICS kernels support that. I would get the same problem with the slide unlock screen, and all I did was change the governor, using the stock frequencies.

Sent from my Galaxy S II (i777)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Winklie:
Well I had SetCPU installled, but the Kernel does not support overclocking so I saw no need for the application and removed it.

I started from scratch, I did a factory wipe/ cleared Dalvik cache and reinstalled the ROM, both versions 2.0.1 and 2.1, also the mail fix. I installed the modem that shows the best performance where I live now, and also installed Entropy's new Kernel (again at least from a cursory look it maxxes out at 1.2 GHz)

I'll know more after today, I'll post here tonight after work and we'll see how things are going now.

Wink
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Winklie:
Well face unlock seemed to work perfectly, i'll chock it up to some strange code bug.

Odd thing my mic out would not work all day, however connected to headphones here at home it's working fine. I guess it could be the radio at work or a co-worker who is sick of my music who borked it so I can't use my phone as an MP3 player.

Overall I gotta say I am extremely happy.

Thanks all for your help!

[Motorola Droid 4] bdbraaten:
I am looking at adding the wifi hotspot service to my phone.

I'm wondering if anybody uses it and what your experiences are?

Any things I should watch out for?

A salesman at Best Buy told me that while hotspot is running I can't make or receive phone calls, is this true?

I should clarify, I'm asking about the Verizon mobile hotspot service added to my account. I am not asking about the hacks to steal the service. I understand the reasons others use them, it's just not for me. Whether I like their rules or not, it's Verizon's network so I'm going to play by the rules.

EDIT: it looks like I have the primary answer I was concerned about, you can still make and receive calls while using the hotspot.
[Motorola Droid 4] mlemasney:
I have the 4g LTE hotspot on my Galaxy Nexus. Most of the time when I'm using it, I'm in 3g mode. If a call comes in, it suspends the internet connection until the call is over. I've never tried making a call while using the hotspot, and I'm not sure what would happen when using the hotspot in 4g LTE mode. Since voice calls don't use 4g LTE, I don't see why it wouldn't allow voice calls while using 4g LTE hotspot.
[Motorola Droid 4] jnc8651:
Data works just fine if your on LTE and on the phone at the same time, i do it all the time with some headphones i have
[Motorola Droid 4] bdbraaten:
That's pretty much what I expected, what the tech was telling me didn't make sense. It did have just enough plausibility to it though as a carry over from the 3g days when they couldn't do voice and data at the same time.
[Motorola Droid 4] bdbraaten:
Thanks, I thought that was one of the draws of lte was being able to have data and voice at the same time.

I'm starting to think this is a viable option as our home internet connection, dropped Comcast a last fall and been using just out phones. It has been working but finding more and more times where I need to get my computer online.
[Motorola Droid 4] bdbraaten:
When you are using it are you running on battery or plugged in?

If you're running plugged in does it have the power to run like that indefinitely or does it still drain your battery?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] paperskye:
I just bought a MyTouch 4G Slide and I'm looking at the different ROM choices. My biggest two concerns are with camera function and battery life.

I have used Cyanogen on my past couple phones and have loved it, so I was looking at CM7 SelfKang. I can deal with only having 2x zoom and 720p video, but some of the comments mentioned poor battery life.

I have been reading into a couple different ROMs, but I'm not quite sure which one would be the best regarding both camera and battery aspects. I'm looking to get opinions from those of you who are more familiar with what is out there.

Thank you!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Some_dude36:
If you can get it to work right . some have no problems others do .. Rubix ICS 5.3 with the Sense camera is a awesome rom ... I had problems with it . others say it works great
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
If you want a nice, stable rom. That keeps all the stock feature, but with out the Sense look. Use Rubix ICS on Rootzwiki. It's based of the shipped stock rom. GB 2.3.4.

If you want ICS with working Video and Camera. Use any of Tbaldens ICS Roms but his CM9 Port. You losse 720p video, but really. One can manage with out 1080p. You need a class 6 or higher SD card for full 1080p, otherwsie it is 720p.

If you want a crazy fast Rom use the AOKP port by XMC Wildchild.

If you want a super fast stock rom, use BulletProof.

If you want Sense 3.0 use Rubix Sensation on XDA.

My Personal Fav is the Virtuious Senseless on Root, or PryoIce Senseless.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
All Roms not using the CM7 kernel have amazing battery.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darrendm:
lol, beyond awful
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] backspacr:
I use a pair of Panasonic RP-HSC200K as my dedicated gym buds. They're the kind that wrap around your ear so they don't fall out and can resist my gross sweat. They're flexible and can take the abuse of throwing them into my gym bag with my shoes and gear (so far). I like that style because buds like the stock one and iPod ones I have kept popping out my ear when I jog/use the elliptical and get sweaty. They cost $60 and the sound is decent in my opinion. I wasn't looking for audiophile quality considering that I knew they would be abused and soaked in sweat, lol. I didn't want to get something that I would have to worry about.

The mic integration works fine and the button to pause/skip to next song, but the volume controls don't work with my Nexus. They do on iPhone and iPods.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] havi007:
I tried them once I really dont like the buds they come with they are too big for my ears. I curious why they come like that my ears are not small lol. I will have to try it again today at the gym going to see how they work.

Seriously consider buying these but man I would really like good integration with Android I sold my iPod touch last year.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cordell507:
I'm about to buy the skull candy fix in-ear earphones they seams good but I'll wait and see
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] havi007:
Does that have mic and control
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trainerKEN:
I lose earphones all the time, so refuse to buy the nice ones, believe it or not, those Skull Candy with mic are great, and I'm not even talking about their high end models, i bought one on sale at Staples... and honestly? For $15 (sale price), they are pretty damn impressive. Not to mention that you can use them to talk (well...this model you can).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] backspacr:
I hear that. I carried these headphones over from when I used to have an iPhone 4 and yeah, it kind of sucks to lose that functionality.

Apparently it's difficult overall to find a pair where both volume up and down work on the in-line controls? Doesn't seem like a lot of models that are iPhone compatible work with Android as well. I dunno. I do have a pair of Skull Candy earbuds as well with mic and volume controls. I'll have to re-test it and see if it works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] havi007:
Are these the ones you are talking about.

Skullcandy

Hopefully I can find it somewhere for that 15 dollar price tag

update what i noticed is the difference between that link i posted and this one

black skullcandy

is the cable is flat on the black one I wonder if it is better
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] question.com:
I just ordered a set of jays one+ they should arrive tomorrow. I'll chime in and let everyone know how they are. I work out 6 days a week, so I'll def put them to the test.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dcoy82:
If your willing to spend the $100 I HIGHLY recommend the Jaybird Freedom. They are very good. Sweat/water resistant, comfortable, bluetooth, and sound really great especially for blue tooth.

I've had mine for about 3 weeks now and I now use them more than my cans or Bose wired headset. They have nice all around sound and nice bass and I've honestly never heard blue tooth headset sound so good.

Only two drawbacks I've seen with them are the mic is a little choppy if your talking to someone (Focus on your workout, not talking :P), and your going to need to wear an armband if your outside as the signal won't have walls to bounce off and will cut in and out if your phone is in your pocket.

Check them out:

http://www.amazon.com/Jaybird-Freed...8DOM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333998241&sr=8-1

Edit: These things are easily worth the $99 price tag on Amazon. Now that I've used them and broke them in, I'd gladly pay $200 for them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] babymatteo:
Nothing sounds better than the Bose IE2's. You'll never regret getting these.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dcoy82:
I have these as well and wear my Jaybird freedom's when I workout because as the Bose do sound nice the wire is just a pain in the butt when working out or running. I started off wearing these when working out but that only lasted a week or two before I had to switch up to bluetooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] babymatteo:
I had that same problem with the wire going everywhere, until i picked up a Scosche universal armband...i have the wire running under my arm and into my shirt so it doesn't interfere with my running...and it worked out quite well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trainerKEN:
those actually look better than mine...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] urinsane:
I've been loving my LG HBS700 Bluetooth headphones while running. Got mine for less than $50 on amazon. They sound great and are very comfortable... really one of the best purchases I've made in the past year. The battery gets me through a day at work listening to podcasts and has plenty left for my workout after.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] havi007:
I appreciate everyone's input.

Unfortunately at the moment I can not spend more than I guess 50 to 60 dollars on a pair. A) cause I need to replace my windshield and B) This will be probably only to listen to music while I work out I rarely ever since myself in situations where I am listening to music while I am out and about unless I am driving I would have it plugged into my stereo.

Those Jaybirds looks so legit I wish I could get them. I think I am going to have to get the skull candy one. God I wish they didn't have the ****ty logo. Looks so high schoolish. Ugh I hate that. I probably look like so punk kid that has no respect for their elders lol.

Unless anyone else has any suggestions for something under 60 or 50. Sound quality would be nice I understand you get what you pay for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] havi007:
I just read that these do not work for android devices :( ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trainerKEN:

So out of no where my power button is being very strange. When I press it, it will turn on the automatically turn off I will if i press it again the screen will flash on and then off, it only does this every once in a while, but its very annoying.

At first I thought it was my rom but it does it in recovery as well, I will press the power button and acts as if I double.pressed the button.

Same here! I always thought the power button was a little sensitive. I wasn't sure if it was a software issue or a design issue.

Glad to know I'm not alone..
[HTC EVO 3D] zadias:
Certainly a hardware issue. Have you seen the size of the power button without the battery cover on? If you press too hard on power often, the button may become super sensitive.

I don't know any solutions. I've experienced it, but rarely.

[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
Power button had been a problem from the beginning, mine is so bad that it almost sits flush with the body and I have to struggle to press it and get it to work. I remember people complaining about it when the phone came out and its a simple mechanical problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] njd.sina:
Mine has a similar issue, but it's the volume buttons rather than the power button, where if I press it once, it registers two hits, which was particularly frustrating when I had TWRP 1.0.
[HTC EVO 3D] respectagain:
It's definitely a hardware issue. My first one had this same issue. My new one doesn't have any problem at all. Switching the back cover doesn't make a difference on the new one. I can't get it to happen at all with it.
[HTC EVO 3D] SteelH:
For a temp solution you can use leedroid tweaks and set something else besiders the power button to turn the screen/phone on/off. Like vol up, down, or camera button even.

Dont think Ive seen any posts about it, but that modem was really good i miss it, i notice the slower speeds with this ICS modem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] scott14719:
LeeC released a version of the UCLA3 that worked for me on ICS. I used it for about a week before I flashed the Note modem. My experience was that the UCLA3 modem (LeeC's) worked as well as the GB version (Silver's) did while on GB. I have not tried Silver's version with ICS. I'm not sure if it has more files than LeeC's version or not. It showed "Unknown" under the baseband when I flashed LeeC's UCLA3 modem but it worked perfectly. LeeC posted that he confirmed that it was indeed the UCLA3 files that were flashed when he tried it. Here is the thread that explains it a bit more..see post #30 and beyond:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1567213&page=3

For me, the UCLA3 modem and ICS Note modem work about the same but the Note modem shows up under the baseband.

Let us know if you can get Silver's UCLA3 REX modem version working on ICS or if you know anyone that tried it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mhx:
well i saw the UCLA5 modem cwr zip, and i think its missing /system/lib files other modems uses

now maybe the NOTEs lib files are the same as the ICS leak we have, i dont know im looking now, i downloaded the NOTE rom 2 days ago, but been afk

---------- Post added at 12:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 AM ----------

see what i see.. there all different sizes

so the new modem is using a newer LIB one thats larger than ours.

UCLA5 modem + those libs might be the key to better modem

If you want to try copy these to your /system/lib + flash UCLA5 modem

http://hive11.com/android/note-lib-files/

backup your old ones first
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] scott14719:
Its strange because some (like myself) have used the Notes ICS modem (UCLA5?) without a problem, but others are having all kinds of trouble with it. I guess its like everything else ICS...just the luck of the flash. I think I read about someone on Rogers not having data after flashing LeeC's UCLA3 version, but most (including myself) haven't had any trouble out of it (other than the "unknown" baseband). But maybe that's because I have the AT&T Skyrocket and not Rogers. But data, connectivity, and LTE all work good for me with the Note ICS modem and LeeC's UCLA3 modem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mhx:
might get better performance.. because these libs are what connects modem > kernel

The one file is pretty big compared to the old one.. really big compared to gingerbreads version

let me know if you or someone is daring to try it.

It might be the magic modem.
