I tried the link for gps.conf as you have suggested and also tried solution here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=953630 but none of them solved the GPS problem. I can see the satellites but the location is not detected via google maps.

Also,

- Both files fail to install through CWM so I had to do manual push using android commander - http://androidcommander.com/

- After pushing files, I have set the permissions to read + write for owner (root) and read only for (group) and (users)

Hi!

I would like to get rid of this annoying start and shutdown sound.

Any ideas?

Is there a "killstartsound.zip" for CWM existing?

Or can we manipulate the file with the root explorer?

Tethering on Newman N1

Just a little tip for you guys. I've tried many different tethering softies but the only that works for me on N1 is the following: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kikiapps.tether. Really easy to use and install, just remember to restart your phone before using :good:

Hello gommers1978

After flashing the "New boot image (heating up problem)" update, do we need to

Wipe data/cache etc and Battery Stats?

Without init.d support it will not affect any of the phone functionality right?

Sound setttings

What should be proper sound settings? I am encountering problems when talking with my girlfriend who also has Newman N1. Wherever we call on Skype, or KakaoTalk or whatever we here echoes of each other. How to fix that?

EDIT: What is more when I talk on Skype Test Call I hear my voice very good.

Also when I call my brother on Skype, while he is on his desktop computer, there is different kind of echo - my brother says he hears himself in a speaker just a second after he said something to me... I hear him good. It must be something with the settings as normal calls are ok. Only those over Internet are not.

How is it going with the heating problem with the new boot.img??
[General Questions and Answers] Tsurany:
Heating seems to be under control. It gets warm but a lot less warm then before. And this is mostly caused by the CPU and all other functions being located in that particular region.

Only problem I am having is the battery not correctly reporting it's charge and the battery drain that seems to be a bit higher then it could be.
[General Questions and Answers] Dmitriy:
Confirm, I have the same problem :(

My battery lasts less than 7 hours without any extreme overload, (less than 30 min talk, 1hr radio/music, less than 15 internet over 3g. no wifi/location/gps/sync/auto rotate screen/anything i could have think about).

now, 5 1/2 hour after, i have 30% left.

I can't use it like this

just finished writing the message and it dropped to 24%...

Did you all use battery calibrator tool from android market to calibrate your battery?

How to use:

-Install battery calibrator from market and give root permissions.

-Charge battery to 100%, go to recovery and wipe battery stats and charge again to 100%

-When 100% open battery calibrator and press calibrate and remove power cord.

-Discharge battery completely and charge to 100% (your battery is now correctly calibrated)

Do these steps every time you load a new ROM!
[General Questions and Answers] Dmitriy:
-Discharge battery completely and charge to 100% (your battery is now correctly calibrated)

It is better to change to 100% when the phone is off, wait it to charge to 100% and then switch it on, or whet it is fully dischsrded put it to charge and switch it on and wait 100% charge ?

is it related to the fact that I removed the SD card today to see if it was the cause to the battery problem?

I flashed today my phone with a 1.05 version rom. I have a problem that someone I talk to on skype, can hear his own voice in his speaker. I bet that this is not only my problem. Please check it guys. It seems that microphone of Newman catches the sound from a speaker and then sends it again - it feels like echo. Anything I tried didn't help. When I talk normally on phone, everything is ok. The problem appears only in Internet calls.

Earlier I used MobileUncle Tools to configure it by myself, but I couldn't fiugre out how should it look like... PLEASE Help.

[General Questions and Answers] torrenciak22:
What is strange actually, it seems to me that mic just catches the sound from a speaker and sends it to a person I am talking to. And the most strange thing is that when I talk normally on the phone, everything is alright - no echo, or anything - clean sound. I tried to low down Mic in MobileUncle. At about 75 echo was close to unhearable, but then again when I tried to talk with somebody on the phone (real, not Internet), I was hardly hearable.

Dual mic off? What means by dual mic off? How to set it?

Maybe gommers1978 knows something about it? I really need that, and it is not working:crying:

[General Questions and Answers] Tsurany:
Wouldn't worry much about EPO, if you use A-GPS you won't need EPO. It's a nice feature that can reduce the TTFF but in my experience with this phone the TTFF isn't the problem but the accuracy of the GPS itself is.

I noticed one issue with SMS. If I send out a new sms to a numbers or from contact

and when the same party reply, it show as another sms meaning it is not threaded

sms conversation. However if I reply a sms from the received message it will be grouped

or threaded - meaning the send and receive sms appear as one single conversation sms.

Is this ROM or ICS issue? I remember previously using the phone with Gingerbread never

encounter such issue.
[General Questions and Answers] gommers1978:
Which version of ROM are you running?

For me it works it is threaded in the same folder, did you apply CID patch or are you on v6.

Also remember that SMS still uses country code prefix so if your contacts are stored without it is possible that it sees them as different contacts.

Also when you have recovered messages from before the CID fix it will not work with those you have to start over with a new message and test it.
[General Questions and Answers] KURT.Beadles:
Just to confirm that it's working for me as well with gommers ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] weimerd:
I also encounter heating problem combined with looong charging terms and inaccurate accu percentage.

I'm on v6 including new boot image that should prevent heating (but obviously doesn't)

Switching back to v4 directly takes away the problems. So it has to have something to do with some changes between the ROMs. I tried also to clear all caches etc with no effect.

A short look into "Android system Info" shows that the CPU is working 100% at maximum level (1Ghz) and never set the clock down. When using SetCPU it's easy to see that a millisecond after SetCPU clocks down the clock is set back to 1Ghz.

In Task Manager the CPU is not used by any process so I don't know why the system is not clocking down.

I hope this helps a little to find the error in ROM. Looking forward to a new one. And again: Thank you gommers for your good work.

I would suggest to discard v5 and v6 and start changing again from v4. Maybe something went wrong while coding.

Best regards
