GPS Lock Issues

Anyone having

GPS lock issues

? My phone thinks its in Windsor Locks, CT half the time (I'm in Houston, TX - halfway across the country). I noticed the issue because my BeautifulWidgets keeps saying Windsor Locks

To troubleshoot I wiped maps data from titanium backup and that "kind of" fixed it (wouldnt lock but was within about 30 yards of correct) . When I'd wake my phone later the widget told me I was in Windsor Locks again. Now GPS is stuck on Windsor Locks until I wipe data on Maps through titanium backup again.

I was post-stalking Cyanogen earlier and found this in the

MT3G-Slide Forum

. It fixed my problem, nearly instant, accurate lock, and staying fixed! (b#3 nightly). I don't recommend any amateurs try this (Changes to /system file) :shrug:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] clamder:
gps actually worked great for me. i used google navigation for a 40 mile drive down colorado and it never lost lock once. :D

Do you have to have 3.0.0.5 for that to work when you shut it off with it plugged in to stay off to recalibrate the battery? I tried that method with 3.0.0.2 and it still boots into CWM.

I am loving this ROM! Thanks to all the devs that have put so much work into this! I am loving Gingerbread. Performance is way better over stock ROM.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] student.driver:
Unknown. I only have 3.0.0.1 and haven't tried it myself. I'd just use 3.0.0.5 either way as it's supposed to be better and leave it at that. Kind of a bummer though.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] student.driver:
Has anybody noticed their notifications are really quiet?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Amac1222:
Ok, I had just heard that 3.0.0.5 was messing up some nandroid's and people were having issues with 3.0.0.5 but it seemed 3.0.0.2 was working well for just about everyone. Can I just flash 3.0.0.5 the same way I flashed 3.0.0.2 with no issues and still have all my nandroid's restore alright or have there been issues with that as well that you know of?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
I am not sure who is saying 3.0.0.5 isn't working but it is. I have tested it and it worked fine. Use my method and flash it and test it and if it didn't work flash .2 again. It will work though.

Let me know where you read that it wasn't working. I would like to know for sure because I will update my post if that is the case. Thanks

The first post on this thread at the CM forum might help. It sounds like there might be two different 3.0.0.5 recoveries, according to his post. If that's the case, that could be causing all the confusion (or something was just mislabeled).
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Lakeshow423:
Drew..I installed 3.0.0.5 and when I do a backup inside CW it blanks out at the boot screen. I pull the battery and go into recovery and do my backup there. It seems to back up everything fine. It shows the backup in RM when I boot back in. Is this normal? Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Amac1222:
I really don't remember where I saw it wasn't working. I'm pretty noobish at all this but I've got the basics of flashing stuff through terminal emulator and using adb when I need to and flashing ROM's and stuff like that. I read soooo much every single day that I can't remember where I saw it. It was in one of the Gingerbread ROM threads, it was either Jaywan's Nexus S or one of the CM threads. I don't ask questions, I read and read and read and read until my eyes bleed and I find my answer. Lol.

Edit: I'm going to try 3.0.0.5 and see how it goes for me. I'll report back with how it goes.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Previously 3005 wasn't working but now I'm hearing that it does so perhaps it's been updated?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
All nandroids should be made from recovery not rom manager. Although you can use rom manager to rename your backups.

I have also confirmed that Nandroid backups work fine with the 3.0.0.5 version supplied in my method. You can actually flash a nandroid created with 3.0.0.5 and then restore it using 2.5.1.2 too.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Amac1222:
Yeah I flashed 30005 and did a nandroid and restored my nexus s rom and then restored cm and all worked fine. I'm still getting a reboot into CWM however when I charge and then turn off the phone. Not sure how you are getting it to stay off??
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
I only turn my phone off to reboot in between flashes. There is no fix for the turn the phone off and charge thing that I know of.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
I have found it does everything ok, but most things have to be done through recovery directly.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
So what's the consensus on the battery drain issue? Is it due to needing a wipe? Is it part of the ROM? Is it some runaway process connected to some other program?

I lost 70% of my battery in about 4 hours today. Not cool. Partial wake usage was inconclusive and battery history showed Android System as 42% with Cell Standby as 20%.

I'd say it's time for a wipe but I have NO other issues. ROM and phone work flawlessly, just really battery hungry. CPU settings are completely stock, haven't touched them.

I'm sure they know, they do keep an eye on these threads. I really don't want to bother Zinx directly but I would love to hear his weigh-in. What I'm really curious about is whether there were any changes to the kernel from 38 to now.

Ziggy - would you mind restoring your nandroid of 38 and looking at the kernel version in about phone to see if there's a difference? I'm really curious.

One weird thing, when restoring 38, when it checks the MD5 Check sum, it took like 1 sec., when restoring Nightly 5, it took like 5-8 sec to check the MD5 Check sum.

I'm not capped. If I go back to stock, I get 3 to 5 meg downloads.

Not sure what else to do. If anyone else has any suggestions I'm willing to try anything to use CM. I've been a devoted fan since my OG days... but I needs my speeds.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:

ok, in the ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0.0.6

to wipe cashe+dalvik is that "wipe cache partition"?

if not, how do I do this?

NOTE: ok, under "advanced" I found "Wipe Dalvik Cache" but still unclear on what wipe "cashe" is without doing the factory reset. I've thus far been doing everything through rom manager, so I'm learning. Thanks a ton!

[myTouch 4G Android Development] joackie27:
"Wipe cache partition" will just wipe the cache. To wipe the Dalvik cache, go to Advanced and there you will find the option "Wipe Dalvik Cache."

Hey guys.

So I have a problem here. Before RC1 all the nightly builds would work with themes like mixer or cm7 themes like frost. After rc1 all the updates bootloop when I flash the themes. Then I reflash the nightly build 4 for example. Then some parts of the phone are the theme I tried to flash. After bootloop with mixer my facebook was transparent. Everything else is normal CM. So weird :-\

I will do a full wipe and flash build #6 and try a theme on it and see if it works.

Sent from Glacier with CM7
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
ok, after that, how do I install the new nightly? Do I boot back into rom manager and do it there or is this done from clockwork recovery and if so, how?

I know these are noobish questions, but I appreciate the help, and thank people for helping me!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
Just select wipe cache partition, then after that, go to advanced and wipe Dalvik Cache.

Found this on another forum posted by Backnblack

Dalvik Cache Simple explanation:

When Android starts up, the DalvikVM looks thru all of your applications (.apk files) and frameworks, and builds a tree of dependencies. It uses this dependency tree to optimize the bytecode for every application and stores it in the Dalvik cache. The applications are then run using the optimized bytecode. This is why when you install a new ROM, sometimes it takes a very long time to boot for the first time. Any time an application (or framework library) changes, it's reoptimized and the cache is updated.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kennyp987:
Those themes were designed on RC1 framework....any other builds have different frameworks so it will not work until the theme is built on the new framework

Full charge + wipe battery stats helps alot too

MT4G + CM7 nightly
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
Have the new Nightly in the root of your sd card.

Then go in to Recovery and wipe the Cache and Dalvik Cache

After that, select "Install zip from sdcard"

On the next Screen Select "Choose Zip from sdcard"

You will then see a directory of your sdcard, scroll down to the New Nightly file and select it.

You will then be asked if you want to install, select Yes and wait for it to install, then when done, reboot, you might also want to advanced after flashing and do the fix permissions.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
doing all these things, adding so much to the SD card, sure I still have 5g of space (that's with having 8g of music on it already) but how do you clean out all the old junk without getting rid of what's needed?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
After you flash a Rom or anything else for that matter, you can delete it from your sdcard.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
I get through life with good notes (using Evernote lol)

That being said

To install a new rom (like CM Nightlies) the right way without losing all your stuff

1. Make a new Titanium Backup

2. Download new rom and make sure the .zip is in the root of the sd card

3. wipe cache partition

4. wipe dalvik cache

5. install rom from zip on sd card

6. Fix Permissions

7. Reboot and let sit for 5 min

8. return to recovery and fix permissions again

9. reboot and let sit again

pretty-much it?

you guys are awesome!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
Everything in that looks pretty good but FYI as a personal prefrence, I dont use Titanium Backup and it isnt needed if you are just over-flashing a nightly. If you want a good one click app restore program try MyBackup Root. I also in all of the 30+ nightlies I have flashed and reflashed, I have never fixed permisions via recovery. All the permissions are set when the zip is flashed.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
what does fixing the permissions do when done in rom manager vs leaving it to the rom?

EDIT: Interesting... I did it with the fix permissions and ended up getting a boot loop after the second fix permissions, re-installed after a re-wipe of cache and dalvik and everything seems to be ok so far.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
When in Rom Manager it fixes the permisions to what it thinks it should be set as. When the Rom is flashed the script inside sets the permisions to what they should be. Really the only time I know of that you need to worry about the permissions is when installing something to say the system (typicaly when using Root Explorer or the like) after the initial install. Any permissins can be checked using Root explorer and changed when the file is placed in the system.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
checking out MyBackup Root. Do you use pro version?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] djdeviance:
I actually use Titanium Backup Pro. It also does 1 click restore all. Pretty handy imo.

So I'm way excited about now.. I have a few questions.

How is the Official CM7 coming along for the MT4G. Same as other devices. I have a Nexus One. and have been on CM since CM4. I just got a MyTouch 4G Black today for $50 dollars (Long story :D) brand new.

I've rooted, and I just installed Rom Manager, flashed Clockwork 3.0.0.5 and I just finished a Nandroid. So now I'm about to flash CM7 and give her a run. Is there anything I should know. any outstanding issues since it's still in RC? anything? Only issue on the Nexus One is the occasional call wonkyness.

Thanks guys!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
Yes, the first thing you should do is go to the thread in my sig and install CwM 3.0.0.6. The RC is running pretty good but if you want the latest then hit up the nightlies thread and get the latest one of those. There are a couple bugs in the RC that have been fixed in the nightlies along with a few more tweeks added.
