Nav+Pandora+BT=FAIL. Possible solution.

Hi Tazz!

I have been following the thread about people having problems with Navigation, Pandora, and BlueTooth all running at the same time. It reminded me of some information that was posted by Ian Hawkins - The developer of the "Torque" OBD II application. He states ... "Any reports of hanging, freezing or reboots after quitting the app is due to a bug in HTC devices and Galaxy Tab, this can be triggered by using the Pandora app. Disabling Pandora's new bluetooth settings fixes the problem, but HTC/Samsung need to release a fix. Please contact their support and encourage them to fix, Thanks!".

Ian's Torque uses bluetooth as the data connection between itself and the car AND the app also issues voice commands - just like Nav does. Therefore, I was wondering if another "voiced" application (Nav , in this case) was having the same problems that Torque has with Pandora's bluetooth option.

Pandora's BT option is in MENU> Preferences> Bluetooth for Automotive. Setting it to "Off" would be a good test of this hypothesis.

lol, yeah, we used the switch-to tactic, and they said that they had to at least send us re-furb eris's to attemp to get us back up and running... I guess when these come in we'll see on the "quality" of the "new" ones...lol, I'm pretty sure we'll be calling back as I've heard that most of the re-furb's are pieces of crap... having problems such as trackball, buzzing in earpeice, usb malfunction etc..., so I guess it's wait-n-see.... maybe can get a Dinc or TB outta it....lol, well, that's wishing
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
Good thinking, however, I'm running a modded version of Pandora v1.3 that does not have that option. Not gonna totally dismiss this, but for me, this isn't my problem.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mad5870:
yeah i was going to say don't do a nand. i know it sucks redoing everything but if that is what it takes to get to work. sorry :(
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mercys Fallen:
My refurbished Eris is awesome. Thanks to some devs. The refurbished one has been rooted the entirety of time I've had it.

Side note : if enough people ask you think HTC would make a. Eris 2 I like the compact size I don't want a two handed phone .... >.<
[Droid Eris Android Development] mad5870:
I agree. i wish they would. this phone is great now
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Ty for this. It's not happening to most that's y I'm confused just seems like a few people
[Droid Eris Android Development] ho11ywood45:
whats the difference between standard and s.r.e ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Jolest:
Those aren't "resident" apps in the sense I meant. I mean apps that load and stay running in the background 24/7... Apps that can't be unloaded without loosing some functionality.

If you need an example list, let me know.

[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
Thats interesting! However, I'm not using Pandora, I'm using DoggCatcher, a podcast app. They both play audio though.

The evidence I have gathered points to the problem being more recent, as in it didn't have this problem until a few versions ago. Again, I strongly suspect its a CM7 issue and not Tazz's fault.

Something worth trying though, does it reset while using a GPS and a Bluetooth device, but not listening to audio? Does it reset when using GPS and audio, but no Bluetooth radio on? I work this Friday delivering pizzas, and I'm gonna run a few tests and report the results.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Jolest:
I had to do a full wipe and re-flash (reasons NOT related to GTazz), so I decided to do some experimenting. This time, I only reloaded (Using Ti Backup) the system files and a handful of key apps I need. I didn't install c2c or any swap-file tools.

After 24hrs with that setup, the phone is flying, I've had no mystery reboots, no FCs, and and no bogging down.

I added c2c about 30 minutes ago and will let it run for a while.

Not sure how long I will stretch this out since my TBolt arrived today... :rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
So for some reason. A full wipe us needed ....Hhmm
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Yea like what? That will help me test better for everyone so this crap doesn't happen.. I'm embarrassed about all this
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
S.r.e is standard lol just a nickname for it lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] ho11ywood45:
so then whats the difference between the two packages on the 1st page? or are they the same just mirrors?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Enjoy ur tb bro... It's bad ass .. I found a few themes and working in a Rom so hopefully u will flash it lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
LOL! You should be embarrassed about it Tazz! Its the CM7 team's fault for not supporting such a sucky phone! Its just us few people who are listening to music with a Bluetooth device connected and using a GPS app! Otherwise its the most sucktastic ROM I've ever used!
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Thanx bro..but it pisses me off lol.. did u try a full wipe like others have ? funny thing about it bro.. I'm using a few parts from cm for my aosp Rom and don't look like there is issues
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Even with all the problems just wanted to say this Rom still sucks! Lol

I hope everyone gets this all figured out seems crazy its only certain ppl.

Question if I don't have the issues mentioned should I flash the latest test?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Only if u want the newer nightly
[Droid Eris Android Development] Blkbty:
Wow can't believe the issues mine hasn't acted up once I'm still on V20 the first one
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Yea looks like its only a few people
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mercys Fallen:
No its definitely suckier
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
So I've done the flashback then wipe then root, then flash most current v20. All seems good, but my signal is stuck at 1x, won't switch to 3G....

Ideas?

EDIT: Got it to working. Went under wireless & networks->Mobile networks->system select: changed from "Home Only" to "Automatic" then turn data off then on. All good now!
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGratefulDead:
Had same issuse a few days ago I fixed same way
[Droid Eris Android Development] Steve125:
I haven't wiped since v17 and have had no issues. On v20 test 3. I also work in delivery and use gos and pandora every day for at least a few hours.
[Droid Eris Android Development] baggadonuts:
Hey guys sorry I only post with problems. Yesterday I unplugged my charger and my headphones icon came on on the notification bar but nothing plugged in. I tried rebooting several times a hard reset and finally a reflash of of v19. Does anyone have any tricks or experience with this? And yes, I checked and the headphones are not plugged in :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Not me. My phone is plugged on a lot cuz of testing.. I have no issues .. but that's me lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
After doing the flashback, reroot, full wipe, flash latest v20, nav + pandora this morning caused a reboot. And that was with hardly any apps installed.

Beginning to think it may be randomly hardware related. Only thing I can think of....
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
I dunno but it seems to be a limited issue.. thats what's strange
[Droid Eris Android Development] santinog:
Do you have the link to Tazz 18? I'm hoping it will fix my reboot issue as my phone rebooted after a mile into my run this morning. I tried to restore but my phone went back to 11. :) I guess you have so many awesome updates I haven't had a chance to restore and they always work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
That really sounds like a hardware issue, IE the little switch that tells the phone that headphones are plugged in is stuck on. Try inserting the headphones into the jack a few times and see if the problem goes away. You could even go so far as to spray some contact cleaner (obviously with the phone off and battery pulled out), then try inserting the jack in a few more times. Just make sure you let it COMPLETELY dry before putting the battery back in.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
Yeah.....

Question: For everyone having issues, do you always have something plugged into the headphone jack when you have a reboot?

I do.

Also, it may help for us to post what we've tried as fixes, and the result.

GPS status- cleared data= reboot

Proper location of apps and permissions= reboot

Full wipe, nand= reboot.

Flashback, full wipe, reroot, flash latest= reboot.

All of these apply to v18-latest v20

Probably redundant, just trying to see if we can track down the issue.
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGratefulDead:
Well this rom is awesome I just recalibrated my battery coming for tazz's aosp back to this gtazz v20

And after 5 hours with like half hour of screen on and wifi checking xda forum out I'm at 99%

Still haha Jesus thanks again tazz

For awesome work
[Droid Eris Android Development] santinog:
v18 no issues

Flashed over v18 to v19 and my phone would reboot when listing to music and using RunKeeper which tracks my runs using GPS

Noticed my music was skipping every 3 to 5 minutes, switched from cube3 to the basic music player that comes on Tazz GB

Did a full wipe to v19, same results

Started rebooting my phone before runs and it worked sometimes on my shorter runs (3 miles) but always rebooted after 3 miles but sometimes it would reboot after a mile

I normally use GPS status to reset/download data about once a week.

Move Google Maps from SD card and all other google programs. Also disable tracking in Latitude. Same results, still rebooted.

Even with GPS turned off and no GPS program open my music is still skipping, its like is struggling pulling the data from the card or something else is pulling data from the card at and it can't keep up. Other than that my phone runs super.
[Droid Eris Android Development] cu_shane:
I was having issues w/ 19 so I flashed to 20v3. To eliminate the scripts I was using (cache-to-cache and undead call fix) as potentially being the problem I did not install them. I deleted all of my sd folders from recovery and did a full wipe before flashing. This morning I was using the stock music player to play an mp3 that was located on my sd card. I started navigation. After a couple of minutes it said that it lost the gps and then a minute later it rebooted on its own. I did have the headphone jack connected and I was using DSPManager. Had barely installed any other apps yet.

Hopefully there are some clues in there as to what is going on.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
extract it from here cm wallpapers
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
im still tryingf to figure out the reboot thing ,, wish it would happen to me,, i might try to download and get sheds other boot img if its different to see if it helps like it was stated
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
No one ever wishes it would happen them! Lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
yea just did bro works flawless
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
its the only way i can figure it out lolim not havent one single issue at all :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
I noticed that when I changed to CyanBread, the icons did not change color as usual such as browser and phone, etc. Could it have anything to do with themes? Just a word, I 'm not a Dev, just saying what I have noticed to try and help. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
That's subject to argument bro :rolleyes: lmao
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i just tried it ,, works for me lol :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
Well damn.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
lol ok let me rephrase ,, no ROM issues
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
no lie bro ,, i can post a screenie lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
That's more better lol. You needed to specify. :rolleyes: lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i just dont get it ,,,,:confused: i know ive said this alot in the few pages but im experiencing non of this
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Its happening right from the start or are you guys overclocking or anything? What's cpu set at for default? I forget lol. Just thinking out loud :rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
on reboot, my voice search installed fine. so i guess that wasn't it. fyi, when i try to connect to my wifi, it says "obtaining ip address" then flips to "scanning" just fyi i know its a much smaller issue. also apps seem to not be able to get root access through superuser.

edit: those having issues, have you tried formatting sd card and/or not selecting any apps from the get go and/or pressing back as the gapps try to install until you get the home screen?
[Droid Eris Android Development] erisdenile:
Very small issue in v2( saw lots of troubles in forums so waiting a bit to flash) but after a reboot i know longer get the awesome gb sleep screen when I hit the power button :P (not full shutdown just when i turn off screen)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i just installed quickboot ,, it asks for su permissions and it worked fine for me bro
[Droid Eris Android Development] spc_hicks09:
VICTORY IS MINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally got it to work flawlessly !!!!! Here's what I did in case anyone is having the same issues.

Full wipe (data+dalvik).

Flash ROM

Flashed gapps before reboot

Booted up, ran through activation process

Hit cancel on the screen for install of google apps

Once my phone got to the home screen i pulled the battery

Started my phone back up and started installing apps and guess what !?!

NO ISSUES !!!! Works flawless ! Thanks a million Tazz !!!!! :D

Ok 1 little issue LOL, now for some reason I can't use the stock email app for my yahoo mail i get the error "username or password incorrect." No biggie

cuz I can just use the yahoo mail app but i would really like to get it to work with the stock email app. any suggestions ?????
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
The reboot I had was from the beginning. I flashed everything. after it booted i touched Andy the Android and signed in, the next screen that came up was the market apps installer (checked nothing, just hit ok) it continued to sign in. The google location services I left all checked and continued till ADW launcher came up. I touched nothing and was letting it reload my apps on its own. After leaving it alone for about 30 seconds, it rebooted to the new cm7 boot screen (it did not shut all the way off and go to the white skateboard screen screen first.). When I saw this, I did a battery pull and let it reboot. After it came back up, I let it sit for 10 minutes till it said apps were restored. I went to the market and facebook was stuck installing continuously so i rebooted one more tim and then downloaded it with no problems. Just not changing the colors on cyanbread. Maybe its because I'm a Yankees fan and Tazz is Boston Built? The icons stay green because of the green monster? lol!
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
hahaahaa thats it bro :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
Just for kicks, I'm gonna post what's in my gps.conf file. Never know....

NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org

XTRA_SERVER_2=http://xtra2.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

Read some interesting things over at Modaco.

http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blade-roms-rom-customisation/331446/mod-all-roms-gps-fix/

people said that this fixed their gps related crashes. might be useful....
[Droid Eris Android Development] ho11ywood45:
does anyone have the v20 link? the one on page 491 has been removed.

and whats the feelings on adw vs launcher 2? any main differences?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Jolest:
L2 is smaller and (superficially) faster. ADW is more mature and has more features.

(I said "superficially faster" because, while

scrolling

in L2 is a bit faster than ADW... ADW allows you to do many things more quickly because of the way it handles the app tray and the ability to configure the homescreens to have more than 4x4 icons.)
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGratefulDead:
There it os
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
I'm gonna be uploading one more test.. if this don't work for everyone .. ill try that
[Droid Eris Android Development] ho11ywood45:
v20 is like butter... loving the simplistic launcher.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
Also found this. Anyone wanna try it? I would but I'm not gonna be out and about for another 4 hours.

bjb_nyj10117th April 2011, 01:29 AM

what's the msl trick?

Make a Nandroid of your current CM7 setup.

Boot into recovery and perform a full wipe (or use Calkulin Format ALL zip)

Flash any Sense ROM

Open the Market and download MSL Reader, write down MSL.

Open Dialer/Phone and type ##4118513# (##GPSCLRX#)

When it asks you for a password type in your MSL

Reboot phone

BE OUTSIDE

Turn on GPS and open Maps, allow it to fully lock your location (may take a few minutes, do not just wait for initial lock).

Leave GPS on

Turn off phone, reboot into recovery.

Nandroid restore your CM7 backup

OH, and if your gps icon in the notification bar stays on, do this:

Get "GPS Status & toolbolx" from market and either way go to tools, manage a-gps, hit reset, this will make the icon disappear and it will clear the gps data and get a better lock.

first five

ok first 5 people WHO had the issues with gps,,, dont need anyone who didnt have this problem ,, im uploading another test ,,, dont send me a pm ,, do it here so i dont get 100 requests in pm :D

And can someone tell me a app to dl so I can test also
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
I'll test what I can. hopefully i can dl in time, got 15 min till i leave work
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
sent bro :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
dl'ing now, 60%

should I do a full wipe or just dalvik?

making a nand too, just gonna flash this one, load my pandora and use that with nav on the way home. Should know after an hour drive.

if it's all good, then I'll restore my nand, then tweak this latest, then reflash.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
I'm schlepping off some poor gimps wifi while traveling this week, send me a link and will pull it down. I have been knee deep in work stuff and havent had a chance to play with all the v20 fun yet ! :D

will pull it down and load a bit later!:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
try both,, like i said,, im trying to find out y not everyone is haven difficulty :confused: would be easier lma0
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
will try just dalvik first
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Ok someone said it does it watching a podcast? I downloaded some program to watch podcast video.. been running for 20 minutes...no issues .. but then again... I have the perfect Eris lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
I'll get that test version please.

Also, try turning on your BlueTooth radio on when testing. I typically have a BT earpiece connected when it happens, but I haven't tested whether or not it makes a difference.

Keep up the great work!
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
holy hell !! didnt realize this podcast is a hour long haha ill let it run for a bit and see what happens,, aso i csaw people said there was delay in answering phone,, i notice its faster now,, if it is slow at first close it and reopen it should be faster now
[Droid Eris Android Development] cu_shane:
Tazz, I'd be happy to test for you, but I won't be able to test the gps until tomorrow morning. If you don't mind waiting until tomorrow around lunch for feedback, shoot me the link and I'll give it a go.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
Latest test results:

Just a dalvik wipe

Nav+Pandora= reboot after lost gps signal after 30 min.

Ran out of time, couldn't do a full wipe.

Will test something tomorrow morning and report back
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
I ran it for the hour. No issues .wtf
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Just got back in, flashing now...will post some testing in a bit!:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGratefulDead:
15 hours of really heavy use just put on charger at 20% this is good news

[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Still testing bro..but mine is all good thus far. I started up Pandora and played some OAR for 15-20min or so while I played with Navigation and maps...no issues at all. Not sure I will have a chance to do more than 15 min for testing before Sunday. All my apps look good and function great.. Smooth as or better than 19 for me thus far...getting ready to install Swype now..Thanks man! :D:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Thanx bro. Need to find out y its screwing up for a few people
[Droid Eris Android Development] santinog:
I would be interested in testing as I was having the issue too. Plus I'm running Tazz 11 because I didn't backup 12 -20 so I will be doing a full wipe.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
Does sound like an issue with people not wiping. I've been having some of the problems mentioned previously but I also haven't wiped since 18 I think. I'm running 20v1. Maybe if everyone wipes with Tazz's next release we won't have problems!! Lol I know I've gotten lazy. X

xD it sucks having to log into everything but, like everyone else here, I'm 99% sure that whatever is happening is either because we didn't wipe or is a cyanogenmod bug. I can't wait for Tazz's next release!!! We love you Tazz!!

Sent from my Gingerbread flavored Eris by Tazz
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
Starting to sound like it.....

Lets find out who all does a full wipe and if any of you have had these issues.

dalvik only= gps reboot issue

flashback, reroot, full wipe then flash 20 test 4= gps reboot issue
[Droid Eris Android Development] ho11ywood45:
I think my battery just blows.

been up for 2h16m on battery after a full discharge + charge and calibration and im at 85%

turned off wifi / push exchange

screen says Display 68% of the battery. the phone has been off in my pocket for 99% of that time. Am I doing something wrong. Device was at half brightness and i just turned it down a 1/4. Is auto brightness better?
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGratefulDead:
i run at 25% brightness then if i need to like in the sun i put to auto. i use to

ran auto all the time shouldnt make too much of a diffenece.

wifi doesnt really drain my battery 3g does that for me haha.
[Droid Eris Android Development] cu_shane:
Negative. I do a complete wipe every time and I've had/am having these problems.

I will say this, I was using launcher2 yesterday when I had the gps/reboot problem. I installed launcherpro last night. I used the gps for about 20 minutes today with no issues. Maybe a coincidence, maybe not. (I'm using 20v3)
[Droid Eris Android Development] beachbumdeac:
I also did a complete wipe before flashing v20, and I've been using LauncherPro, and I've still had the GPS reboot issues. Yesterday I had it reboot after having Nav on for about a minute, and that was with NO audio playing. Very frustrating.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Blkbty:
What settings should I use yo make my little eris almost as fast as a unrooted Droid x . My buddy wants to compare phones tonight
