I did some longer and more complicated drives with Google Navigation. It is very, very good already indeed. When they do a job, they usually get it right.

Now, theres a slight inconvenience with its "ergonomy". It isn't as smooth to handle as the usual navigation-specialized softwares. I find the Sygic approach not good too, but still better than the google one (even tho thats technically superior).

Unfortunately, TOmTom ain't runnin on Android yet. I prefer that.

Guess, its just a matter of taste bro. Thanks for testing.

I had a crash and phone hot reboot with sygic again this morning which was very bad because my wife needed to be in time for school (very restrictive there) and i nearly missed the right road through town (not familiar with that particular area). So i am very interested in finding a possible cause. I suspect it having to do with SD-Card access. Just a feeling. I sometimes have those weird things going on and always there is some strange stuff happening with the sd card.

I am still waiting for my new card, a class 10 Samsung from Amazon (slow f***) since a month now. Hope that'll fix most issues.

Cheers and have a good day. Off to work now.

Oki bro, no problem, I will check that app for you too, what happened with LG camcorder?, did you change from H.264 to mpeg4 and tested it?, let me know please, that will help me on testing your his app. :)

Oki bro, just tested, good app, just drove from my home to the job site and working good.

Do you have running amm, supercharger script or any task killer? That could be trying to kill apps from cleaning you memory, then some settings coming from those apps could cause your gps crashing. If not, what class is your current SD?. Did you downloaded the right map?, let me know please. :)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
Hi bro, could you tell me please how many apps do you have running in the background or how many widgets do you have active in your screens?, could be that the lag is because your phone is updating the info for all those apps while coming up from the standby. For how long it was working like this since you flashed the rom? Thanks :)

Is your radio 2.15.50.14 or 2.15.51.14, if it is .51, try to install .50, let me know please.

Can't hold on any longer,thought update of cd v3 will be coming sooner than later,there are too many problems with this version. Today I got 29 missed calls without knowing my phone ain't ringing anymore. Cd v1.7 here I come,this version always feels like home.Thanking all the support team for their efforts in helping solve cd problems,you guys are doing a great job.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] rafiqzadah:
Thnx for the response. My radio is .50, I have been around since start of coreCELL series. I know my way around these special roms. xD. Well anyway, I have no apps running in the background. I'm basically a stone age cell user. Just maybe 10 apps none of which run in the background. And I did some messing around and found this: When "Screen Auto Rotate" is OFF, no wake up lag.... and i have no widgets on the screen....
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
My auto rotate screen has been always on and never had that problem, as far ad I know, there are 3 different digitized for the hd2, it depends where it was assembled and how old is your phone, newer ones has 0msec Delay on the wake up, could you know which one do you have? Or have you always dealing with this problem or is it just now that you have it ? Let me know please. :)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
Alright dude, massive thanks first. Appreciate your dedication.

LG Camcorder: your recommended settings work. (800x480 and mpeg4)

LG Camera: mixed that up with the camcorder, was actually wanting that one lol. the camera works very well, think better than the CoreDroid integrated one.

AMM: Have it installed, didn't think of it. Might be a prob. Will disable and check since i didn't really notice any diff with/without it will just be binned, see how things go from now on. Thanks for hint.

SuperCharger: no.

Taskkillers: none.

SD-Card: SanDisk Mobile Ultra 8gb, Class 4 or 6, unsure. Transfer-Rates too high for 4 actually.

Map: should be the right one. it picked the map after finding my position.

Concerning your test-drive: how far? how long in time? the crashes sometimes never come, sometimes after 30 minutes, sometimes after only an hour or so. It needs some hours and kilometers to make sure u have a secure base for judgement,
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Tigermoto:
Can i ask a question dude?

I'm going to anyway lol.

Have you got Tytungs GPS Libs Installed?

I only ask because i had the same issue with a few ROMs when i had this installed.

I don't bother any more, if i'm ever far enough out of my comfort zone to need GPS active, i just don't turn it off.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shaedz:
Help! Help! Help! I don't know what is wrong with my phone. I have lost the sound of my phone. I was initially on cd v3 when it happened. Just like I said earlier I had 29 missed calls,that prompted me to move back to cd v1.7. After going through all the processes,I'm now on cd v1.7 but can't still get my sound back.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
You are welcome bro, glad you have working the camera, as for the amm, have a question, honestly, as i am running froyo, have not tested, why don't you download "Temps+cpuV2" from the market?, i use this one to monitoring my CPU usage, CPU Frequency, CPU temp and how my memory is being used and freeing up, all of this in a 1x1 widget, i use to have 80 to 140mb available and most of the time is around 120MB, so i don't really think amm is for being used with froyo, maybe i am wrong:P, just try it.

As for my test about your GPS app, maybe you are right, i tested for about 35 minutes, i have always considered this as time enough to test because of the phone's resources usage. My drivings are not longer than that either lol, and so far, i have no plans to make a trip longer than that.

What i noticed and i was surprised about, was that my GPS status app, always locks in about 3 or 4 seconds showing me from 7/7 to 12/12 satellites depending on where i am, while your app was installed in my phone, GPS status was showing me 5/12, or 4/9 satellites more than 3 times i tested, always missing 5 to 7 satellites, once i uninstalled your app, GPS status went back to normal. So, in fact, i can confirm there is interference between apps, but never FC or crashed in my phone.

As for your sd card, is good, i would say that you have no problems at all on that side, if you want to get a class 10 you will find a better speed opening videos or pictures, i recommend you to download "SD-booster" and change your cache size (Kb) to 2048, it makes your phone faster when reading and writing files and data from your sd card.

Hope this is useful bro, let me know please.

---------- Post added at 07:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:18 PM ----------

That's weird bro, something happened to the phone, it is missing a system file, or got corrupted file. Try the next, boot into CWR, delete cache partition, dalvik cache, and flash the rom again, if that does not work, you gotta start a clean install, since delete data/factory reset on CWR or from Task29.

When you flash back to V1.7, did you reformat your sd card??

Let me know please.:)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] rafiqzadah:
Auto Toggle

Thnx Aort.... I say dots cuz i cant spell the rest of your name off the top of my head srry..... anyway it only happens with this build and again there is a complete fix when i turn off auto rotate.... I would do that but dont feel like having to go to menu and popin on and off the auto... I will consider a toggle on home screen......AHAHAH just had that idea.... idk, im a idiot for like 5 minutes of every day....not saying those 5 mins are consistant, more like on and off (get the irony?)...

Edit: BTW have you guys looked around for the Sense 3.5? There is great progression on the HD2........ just a new and refreshing idea...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
Lol, bro, good one, don't worry, has to be some file or setting messing around, do the next bro please: Boot into CWR, clear cache partition, then clear dalvik cache, then flash the rom again, you will not lose any file, app or configuration, try it and let me know please:)

It will rebuild system files and will fix some corrupted ones
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Tigermoto:
Try flashing WinMo and starting again matey, it's worth a try.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
I had a thought in that direction too already. I have them installed and i am very happy about the extremely fast fixes cuz i quite often need to respond to urgent calls and need gps working with no delay. But i was thinking it might be a culprit too. Alltho i favored the SD for being the prick...

---------- Post added at 01:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:26 PM ----------

Didn't know that one, alltho i believe (without checking the figures) that AMM is useless on the Froyo Build. It does nothing.

Interesting... maybe that prog ain't good with the hardware? using its own drivers? dunno...

Nice hint. Wasn't sure about adjusting the cache size. Heard, it might impose some other problems but didn't read on it yet. So thanks for that suggestion. Will try once amazon decides to deliver (god i hate waiting).

Yet i am still sure the SD does cause problems. Will only be convinced other when i see the other SD behaves identical.

Hey Ortega. I think most ppl like me use a standalone nav app so that we don't need to be using up data from our non-unlimited plans. Here in Canada the big 3 (Rogers, Shaw, Bell) have a monopoly on cable/cellular/internet that includes wireless internet to your phone so they do not offer unlimited anything. They also charge incredibly high rates for overages like up to 5 cents a kb for data to your phone. That calculated to $5 a MB which is rediculous since an average website home page is about that or even more. :confused::mad: Having a standalone gps app with the maps loaded on your sd card saves you alot of $$. Hope that clears things up for you a bit. :D:cool:

EJ
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
Agreed. Same in Germany. I have a very common contract and that includes only 300mb Data. If overused, the connection is reduced to GPRS. other contracts charge up to 10 eurocent per KB... So that is indeed another point for standalone Navigation.

Concerning the Crashes of Sygic: i removed AMM and as of now, i had no further crashes. Might be, that it fixed that.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
Hi bro, I agree too, I like gps apps with loaded maps so you no need to use your data plan, in my case, gonna tell you, I have a contract for $49.99 with unlimited calls, unlimited messages and 5gb 4g data, if you exceed the 5gb the don't charge you extra, just decrease your speed to 2g, I use my gps, the XDA, and the internet almost everyday and when in home, I use WiFi so I don't use my data, in a regular month, I don't exceed 3gb.

It is so weird that in some big countries like yours guys (canada, Germany) I mean, first world countries, the companies are still taking advantage over the data plan that way, they are thieves bro, sorry to hear that.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] EmerJency:
The unfortunate thing is they do it 'cuz they can get away with it. Canada is a very closed society when it comes to any radio wave broadcasting. The Government alongside the CRTC (Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunication Commission)has made it almost impossible for competing outside companies to set up shop. They just started to allow competition in the Cellular market, but since Rogers owns the infrastructure, the newer companies have to buy airtime from Rogers. And of course Rogers' increasing usage fees makes it hard for those companies to compete. Caps get smaller and overage charges get bigger while the big three get greadier and of course richer on the backs of Canadians. Shameful. :eek:

I haven't experienced this. Have you tried fixing your APNs as shown in Aortega's FAQ?

Alternatively, which kernel are you using?

APN's

I'm thinking of trying to improving the signal more consisted. For the most part, it's pretty good here, but sometimes it goes in and out. I seen the (Fix APN's in Aortega's FAQ's.) Is that the best way to try to improve it?

Word to the wise, they are VERY flimsy (Weak)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
oki, guys, as for the signal/reception could be for the next reasons as for my experience:

Yes, i have my signal going in and out, just one or two in a month, for some seconds, i personally think this is related to the provider and not to the rom or kernel, i have rebooted just once out of those times and it worked like it does with DJ, still thinking it is coincidence.

As for the APN's, it works pretty good on me talking about improving the signal as for the settings, i have a better reception and more stable signal.

You may try to help your phone by downloading your locations and setting your region with faster fix, and i am not quite sure if that could help, or is it just related to the GPS. just try it, it won't hurt.

And the last option is what Tiger already recommended you guys, (Thanks buddy) some time ago, we were talking (since V1.5 i guess) that HD2 had kind of a bad antenna, now we know that the hardware could need some adjustment, like the described in Tiger's post. but this is something that you would do at your own risk. I personally would take my phone to a wireless doctor or some place like that. Ljjehl did it and he has already way better signal. As i am not that good with my hands talking about fixing hardware in such tiny pieces, i wouldn't try it by myself.:rolleyes:.

Hope this can help guys:):):)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] lenstan57:
If I try the APN fix in your Docs, Just put it on the root of the SD card and unzip it using CWM? With the apn backup and restore app, do you pick from a list and it installs the differrent apn? I never used it, that why I'm asking. I guess it's tria; and error, until you see a difference.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
Oki, download the app from the market "apn backup & restore" then, unzip the folder on your pc, you'll find a folder with a document within, copy that folder to your SD card root. Then run the app, confirm the action, let it finish, it is gonna check for 619 apn's, when is done, just tap "ok" and then let it finish, it is gonna check one by one until it finds the best for you, gonna be like 2 or 3 minutes, once the "3g" symbol stays steady for at least 5 seconds, it is gonna be done.
