I must say that i have not experienced what you are talking about. And if you look up what i have been posting and asking questions about, here at XDA, you will find that i have had lots of GPS issues with both my HTC Desire and HTC Desire HD. With the OS install that came with the phone and every ROM i have tried, for both phones. Yes some apps do use the gps better than other, that fact i have proved for myself now. But the apps are not the underling cause of the GPS lock issue/s.

There are many apps that i use that do use the GPS, camera 360 ultimate, for example. Today i was taking pictures with coordinates indoors and it worked fine. What i do before i use, camera apps for example, is to make sure that the GPS is locking using GPS status.

Once status works i have found that every thing else works. Its getting the GPS locking again once it stops. Because that is what happens, it works for a while, sometimes a whole day, and then it just will not lock.

I have found a way to get my GPS working once the locking stops. Well this is working for me atm. The no lock issue have happened 3 times in the past 2 days, in between no locks it has been working and i have been using the GPS for sometimes 2 - 3 hours out and about.

My phone is always on 2g, unless i want fast data access. So what i do to get the GPS locking is.

Turn the GPS off, turn on 3g, turn off wifi, open fasterfix and change the server to anything. Close faster fix and open gps status. select menu -> tools -> Manage a-gps state -> press reset and close GPS status. Reboot the phone.

Once rebooted open faster fix and select the server in your reign. Open gps status and it will download new a-gps data. it sometimes takes a minute or so to lock, well that it what it has been doing for me. Once it starts locking again it seem to keep locking. I then turn 3g off and switch back to 2g.

i have also edited the build.prop file in the system folder.

i added

ro.ril.def.agps.mode=2

ro.ril.enable.dtm=1

ro.ril.gprsclass=10

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=10

ro.ril.hsupa.category=6

ro.ril.hsxpa=2

these setting are a mix of gps and data speed tweaks. I connect more on H, faster, than G now.

the GPS type in you phone is very network dependent.

i also changed my APN to 'default,supl' or you can also use 'default,supl,mms' I am on vodafone UK.

These things are working for me on both my Desire HD and Desire phones. maybe they will work for you.

EDIT:

also, if you have a plastic or rubber case on your phone, take it off.

Audio Issue

Hi Mike,

I just wanted to update you on the distorted audio problem we talked about yesterday.

I did what you suggested, editing the build.prop, but it didn't fix the problem.

Although you said the TurboniumX fix was included in the 3.2 ROM, I decided to try re-applying it... and voila! I don't know why it didn't work to begin with, but once I applied the TurboniumX .zip, the problem went away.

Just wanted to let you know in case perhaps there is an issue with the fix you embedded into the ROM.

Thanks for your quick replies last night, and thanks for a great ROM!

Cheers,

Adam

Upgrading to the paid version does this, mate.

Im using 3.2 with the recommended radio on a Telus DHD and sometime when I call out people are complaining that I sound like a robot. This continues to happen even if i call them back or they call me until i restart my phone. Its quite annoying. is this a known issue? if so anyone know of a workaround? is the recommended radio not good for the Telus devices?

Thanks!

Edit- Its not the tinny audio issue that Telus users have
[Desire HD Android Development] qazokm123:
ARHD 3.2 Nice! No problems here

Thanks Mike.

My feedback on my DesireHD, with your ARHD 3.2 (details on my signature) { full wipe; restore user apps using TitBackup }

Audio: Loud enough ( limited by hardware i believe )

Radio: Set to 3G only ( norm drain on battery @ plcs with good signals )

BT: Connecting auto well to Headset && Car-Audio-BT-receiver

GPS: With FasterFix and GPS status, Fix is Quick On (loca:SGP)

Speed: Fast enough

Dont use wire-headset; Dont use weather (its sunny here 24x7x365);

:)

Replicable Issue: Wifi On, LockPhone, plug in power, plug out power => drain of 60mA constant until u screenOn the phone....

Have more beers! Confirmation number: 0FY77474JA733500C

@Wish HTC gives us a 1600mAh batt
[Desire HD Android Development] clouds5:
So i finally installed 3.2 :) Did full wipe when i switched to 3.0 and updated with cache/dalvik wipe to 3.1 and now to 3.2. No problems so far.

First impression: It feels even faster than 3.1! I cant prove that its actually faster, but it just feels snappier no lags at all! Dont have any sync problems and mail app works normal.

I wasnt satisfied with the recommended radio though(12.41.60.19...) Had weaker 2g/3g signal than i had on 3.1 with Radio_12.35d.60.140f_26.06.03.24_M2. And GPS wasnt fixing at all first, had to use fasterfix to get it to fix but only found 5 Sats where i normally got 9.

So i took a leap of faith and installed the other test radio 12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M_Test - if i interpret the numbers correctly it uses the same protocol as the other one that gave me good results on 3.1.

And its amazing. I have the best connection in my room on 2g/3g i ever had. Used to have only 1 bar on WCDMA now i have 3! GPS fixed in 10secs using only gsp status.

I loaded to 100% and 0mA and did a battery wipe, testing standby now. If I dont have an extreme battery drain i think i've found my sweet spot :)

I'm on the swiss Orange network btw.

Battery drain is awesome. But the time seems completely random :D
[Desire HD Android Development] dragonreborned:
Heya mike, will there be a patch, or full wipe/flash will be advised?
[Desire HD Android Development] j3yps:
will the gps problem be fixed with 3.3?
[Desire HD Android Development] spdrosin:
Guys suddenly and without changing anything (from my signature) when I try to turn off the device through Advanced Power Menu and then I plug it to the charger it boots into Recovery mode. I know it's a known bug, but I did not change anything and nothing like that happened until today. Everything worked fine. I can turn off the device somehow only in Hybernation without booting into Recovery. What's wrong? Can someone tell me?
[Desire HD Android Development] rikuza:
Hey guys, Ive got AR with HTC sense installed, But i now want to get rid of HTC sense, is there anyway i can do this without flashing everything and having to start again?
[Desire HD Android Development] dragonreborned:
Afaik, there's none :(

However you can backup all apps+data with Titanium Backup, flash, then restore those you need. (dont restore all in batch since of the Sense apps)
[Desire HD Android Development] Mad_Wolf:
shiftis what does that fix exactly do ?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
You cant choose "Power Off" then it will boot in to CMW Recovery

Choose hibrenate mode instead. :D

[Desire HD Android Development] Hrti:
Having great results with 3.2, march 17th radio and leedroids 2.2.8 kernel :) no issues at all, even the best GPS reception I've ever had (gps.conf edited with many servers).

Would be nice if 3.3 came as a patch this time, Mike. At least if possible :) guess it depends on how deep in the ROM the changes are.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Everyone with sound issues in Desire HD can you goto system/etc/soundimage and tell me what files you got inside?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
This is strange because TurboniumX files are 100% the same that in my fix included in the ROM. I will investigate it ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
I think this could be some app that is messing up your system.
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
funny i have people saying the same, they apply it even it is there and then it works but only some say it.... strange
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Well I found that I had one last line missing in the CodecDSPID.txt

Recording,/system/etc/soundimage/Sound_Original_MCLK.txt

Check if you don't suffer for the same mate ;)

Neeeeed help!!

In clockWorkMod recovery, i did a full wipe and now i can't use my power button to go install your rom...what i have to do?:(
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
What recovery you have? 3.0.0.6?

i cant find any working fastboot-binary downloads for Ubuntu x86.

Could anyone post a working link?
[Desire HD Android Development] Diaoul:
I have huge battery drain with 3.2 compared to 2.1.

No extra process running. IMO it's the radio. My phone lasts 1 day instead of 2. I'll do some investigations with currentwidget.

Anyone else experiencing this ?

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Mad_Wolf:
so mike what happens if we install the TurboniumX Inspire Audio Fix ?

and do you suggest to install it
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
I came from 1.72 Stock, so can't compare to 2.1 - but my battery last about a day with both Stock and 3.2.

I've seen huge differences in batterydrain with same use. Yesterday I decided to just use mobile data instead of wifi and that used a lot more battery. I've seen a lot of problems with HSDPA with 3.2 compare to stock. It switches constanly between H and 3G (and right now I only have Edge (GSM), where i was on a stable H-connection before). I guess this is what is draining the battery (mobile data / bad reception / constant switching between H, 3G, GSM). And my guess would be the radio. I've been on this radio since I moved away from stock, and only got 1½ day on 3.1 before flashing 3.2, so not easy to compare.

Yesterday evening, while screen off and only mobile data active (no wifi/bt/gps), I saw batterydrain at approx -184mA (reboot didnt fix it). With wifi on this has been -5mA (and also seeing -3mA). No new apps/widgets.

mike and you other gurus and experienced users of custom roms (and several radios) - do you think this is the radio's fault, or something else?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
But what device do you have? Desire HD, Telus or Inspire 4G?
[Desire HD Android Development] Mad_Wolf:
Desire HD normal
[Desire HD Android Development] dr4go:
+1. Just realized the same. Facebook for HTC Sense stopped working for me on 17th of March. Anyone else with this problem?

Mike, do you have an idea? (tried syncing with wlan and mobile connections, already cleared data+cache in applications... after that i removed the facebook account in "accounts and sync", but when I try to readd it I get a message something like "service unavailable at the moment")

Strange, I never got any issue 'til I realized it now. Btw: I started having this issue with Revolution HD 3.1. The same now with 3.2.
[Desire HD Android Development] Learnincurve:
I can also report much higher battery drain with 3.2 and radio 12.41.60.19U_26.06.04.14_M than 2.X roms and recommended radios. Drain in the 40-50mA range is more common than 3-5 mA with everything off. The opposite was true before.

My money is on the radio as I have also seen big differences with some of the earlier radios I tried.

Has anyone been trying the leaked 12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M radio with 3.2 and what are the results?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
You can try but I don't know the effect :D
[Desire HD Android Development] sphuyal:
Sorry for catching up late...yes i m using that radio since three days now...everything works great except GPS which is not working since ARHD3.2 anyways...
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
GPS was working fine for you on 3.1?
[Desire HD Android Development] sphuyal:
Believe me Mike i have tried almost any suggestions posted, none of them is working for me. I tried:

1. adding ro.ril......... to build.prop

2. editing gps.conf file

3. the GPS status thing, and checking integrate google thing

4. adding "default,supl" to my APN list

5. and God knows what :D

I did not use GPS that much when i was on 2.0.15 but i never had problems from 2.09 to 2.14....this is strange....I jumped straight away to 3.2 from 2.0.15
[Desire HD Android Development] arash64a:
can any1 sahre a mirror for this links please :

Advanced power menu for Android Revolution HD 3.x.x

Arabic language support for Android Revolution HD 3.x.x

i am using of RevolutionHD3.2 and i cant download the above files.

tnx
[Desire HD Android Development] TenisConcordia:
Yes, i have. Now it's everything fine.
[Desire HD Android Development] TenisConcordia:
Thank you..;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Learnincurve:
Thanks, and from a fellow Norwegian! That sounds promising. Actually my GPS does work - what's the problem with yours?

I'll try 12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M and report back if battery drain is less.

Someone mentioned earlier up that he suspected switching between H, 3G, GSM as a problem. I've just tried setting GSM only and do notice a significant improvement. That said, leaving the setting on auto before hasn't caused such a big difference in drain as I have been experiencing with 12.41.60.19U_26.06.04.14_M.

@mike: You said earlier that some libraries in 3.2 were tailored specifically to the recommended radio. What effects can we expect by these not being matched?
[Desire HD Android Development] arash64a:
can any1 help me PLEASE ?
[Desire HD Android Development] sphuyal:
You can flash that radio...the battery life is good and so is the signal strength. Btw your provider is Telenor?

Which radio you are using now btw? the one Mike has recommended?
[Desire HD Android Development] Learnincurve:
Yepp. Provider is Telenor and I'm using the recommended radio.
[Desire HD Android Development] sphuyal:
Your wifi or mobile network internet is on while you use GPS? If so try it without wifi and mobile network internet.
[Desire HD Android Development] :
Link is on my sig
[Desire HD Android Development] expremo:
I'm running 3.2 and expecting the following problem:

The sound output over the headphones is pretty low. When I'm running the music player and calling someone and then quit the call the music is louder than before...I guess that's a bug, right?
[Desire HD Android Development] Learnincurve:
12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M flashed.

Yes, wifi and mobile network is on. I just cleared gps state and downloaded new assistance data. After that I got a 6 satellite fix within about 10 seconds, which is good for a first attempt with a new radio.

I'll try GPS with no network on my way home this evening. It's a bit difficult here as I have my wifi to turn on automatically when I'm at the office and then I can't turn it off ;-)
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
I'll do some test later today, actually that was on my mind this morning. Comparing to carnavigation (where you can get a QuickFix downloaded - which contains satelitteinformation for the upcoming 7 days - without this "quickfix" the gps lock takes upto a couple of minutes - and even more if you're moving) - there could be a problem with getting a lock without "aGPS" (Assisted GPS, getting fix also from the mobile network - not sure if this is based on triangulation on basestation or an actual download of satelitteinformation, like th Quickfix).

Sorry if my english was a bit bad here, feel free to PM me in Norwegian :)
[Desire HD Android Development] sphuyal:
It would be real nice if you could check, how GPS works when you do not have wifi and mobile network internet on. Last time, i was standing in front of Stortinget in Oslo without having turned on mobile network internet and GPS did not work :mad:
[Desire HD Android Development] JamesBarnes:
Hmm, my battery life has suddenly improved, i changed nothing. Perhaps there is some truth to the radio "bedding in".

I got a full ~20h of med to heavy use yesterday, and still had 10% left when i went to bed.

Awesome :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Learnincurve:
After the first 10 minutes or so of new radio, I've been getting 5mA each time I check :-).
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
My History with recommended radio

Day 1: High batterydrain

Day 2: (after clearing battstat at 0mA): Low batterydrain

Day 3: Low batterydrain

Day 4: "Normal" batterydrain (I didn't change anything)

Day 5: Used Mobile data instead of WiFi all day - High batterydrain

Day 6: "Normal batterydrain" (used both WiFi and Mobile data)

Weird...
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Guys, you cant tell if a radio is good or bad for your battery after a few hours... Give it a couple of days, then you will know for sure how the radio affected your battery.

Some ppl even do a battery wipe after they have changed there radio. And I dont think that's a bad idea.
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
Will it be enough to just disable mobile data before activating GPS, or do you think that the phone already have GPS-data for that period? How can i delete "aGPS"-data, if there is any?
[Desire HD Android Development] clouds5:
I had similar problems with the recommended radio so switched to the one you mentioned. For me it's the best I've ever used. Better reception GPS fix in 10secs and CW shows 1-4mA @standby. Lost only 1% overnight of course it only had gsm on.
[Desire HD Android Development] sharkonland:
Yeah, this was my main concern with the newer roms and their recommended radios. It was mainly the stand-by battery consumption. I was getting about 10-15% usage over night with 2.xx roms and now with 3.2 im getting like 30-35% over night. I was honestly very shocked at how good the standby on my DHD had gotten, about as good as my galaxy s. But now, Its still decent and gets me a around a good 24hrs of use, although I dont use my phone all the time. Ive been hesitant on flashing a new radio but dont know which one. They all have good and bad reviews for battery usages and I dont want to mess something up since this is my primary phone.
[Desire HD Android Development] dr4go:
I could finally solve this disgusting problem... I had to activate the following setting on the Facebook account (I hope I get the translation right, but will also write it in german just to be sure):

Account // Privacy-Settings // Applications, games and websites // Applications, that you use // Activate "All platform-applications"

(Konto // Privatsphäre-Einstellungen // Anwendungen, Spiele und Webseiten // Anwendungen, die du verwendest // "Alle Plattform-Anwendungen" aktivieren)

I don't get it why it's needed now... Could be something for your faq mike if some other users also experience the same issue...
[Desire HD Android Development] timfoote:
Just flashed 3.2 over 3.1 on my Wife's phone. She was getting random freezes on 3.1 so I'll see how it goes. I also flashed new recommended radio and the performance patch. Didn't do a full wipe or anything so it will be interesting to see if she has any dramas with it!

Cheers again Mike...thanks for all your hard work!!
[Desire HD Android Development] spdrosin:
If this is happens to everyone and it is not (only) me, then OK. Thanx for the reply. ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] sphuyal:
Yes. Just reboot with everything off...
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
Ok, Will do!

LEEDROID KERNEL V2.2.8 SET @ 1.3GHZ

Radio_12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M (3x better battery then recommended atleast for me)

FASTERFIX (set to uk)

now im EXTREMELY HAPPY :D

anything new coming in 3.3 mike or is it just bug fixes?
[Desire HD Android Development] NikPraskaton:
Im gonna try this now cuz latest rom version has large battery drain for me too.. Fully charged phone at 1PM lasts to the next day evening.
[Desire HD Android Development] SkOOrA:
How long can Your DHD work on battery?

Normal, daily use, bit of BT, some SMS, some phone calls....
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
Wifi and Mobile data OFF, reboot (mobile data came back on, disabled asap).

Went outside, activated GPS (and Endomondo Pro, as I didnt have GPS status installed) and started walking (home from work). Got a lock after a little more than two minutes.

Weather here today is sunny, and a few clouds.
[Desire HD Android Development] Hrti:
Exactly the same setup as me, and I must say it really works well! 20hrs since unplugged at 100% and I have 45% juice left in the battery. Been using my phone A LOT in those 20hrs. Have synced some thousand e-mails, downloaded over 500MB worth of maps for my Sygic Aura application, constant wifi on with two push accounts etc. Still the display stands for 2/3 of the battery consuption. I have a really low standby drain at 4-5mA on wifi and 3-4mA on mobile network. GPS locks in 3secs when I have my phone in the window.
[Desire HD Android Development] SkOOrA:
Sounds really good :)

I think I might go for this configuration.
[Desire HD Android Development] Saluco:
so you use more exactly what version of leedroid kernel.. (LeeDrOiD_Ace_V2.2.8 ?? ...can only be flashed from CWM 2xx ??) what governor do you use in SetCPU ???
[Desire HD Android Development] Hrti:
Kernel version 2.2.8, yes :) I use ondemand scaling 245-1344MHz with a screen off-profile at 245-499 ondemand. (Actually I now saw that I had used 422-499 screen off!).
