If you have an interest in wifi, bluetooth, GPS or stability then there isn't one.

not really wifi gps or bluetooth. Using it on my g1 which is not my primary device anymore. Just looking for speed. If I have to reboot I am good with that. Just looking for one to play with that is not slower then the first hero build for g1 without a memory card.

gps probs

Hi all,
Im new to the g1 and am having a problem.
I cant get my gps to locate any satellites, I am using a rooted and unlocked g1 with no data plan and just want to use gps and not agps. I know there are satellites around as I can find them with my other cell (lg incite using just the gps and not agps). I thought it might be the rom so I flashed 3 different ones with no luck on either and Ive been searching the net and on here but cant really find any help. Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance
It has taken up to 10 minutes for my phone to find satellites without the data connection to assist. How long did you wait for connection?

Yikes! Have you tried in a different app? I don't really think it would make a huge difference, but weirder things have happened.
Ive tried 3 different ones with no luck. Allthough I did use google sky maps but I dont know if that was using the gps or not.

What ROM are you runnning? Radio? Rooted? Can you capture a logcat (alogcat from the market makes log capturing easy)?

Its rooted and running 2.1 but Ive flashed 4 different roms from 1.5 to 2.1 and none of them can pick up the gps signal. I will try the alogcat and post back.
I am having this problem too. Without data the G1 seems useless for GPS. Rarely it would get GPS lock. I had to put back on data and now gps lock is quick and reliable.

HD2 Europe mobile-reception not workin flawlessly

Hey guys,
i have constant battles with my HD2 running Android. The mobile reception and logically because of that APN is also not workin properly.
Example: I'm at home and have full mobile-reception and internet is working flawlessly. One second later nothings workin... The reception display shows 4/4 lines and one second later 0/4. But i didn't move.. Same with WLAN and APN..
I guess it's not a "build problem", cuz i had this with lots of builds. So it's maybe a windows mobile thing. I have flashed 2.12.50 radio and chucky droid rom.
I tried 2.14 but my conversational partners had very strong echos. (with MIUI-Build)
I searched the forum and googled but i didn't find any solution for this..
Really need this to be fixed.
thx bench

I don't know a lot about android. But i had similar "echo" problems when i used a TMOUS based rom. I use miris 1.80 based rom with 2.14 radio in the uk on vodafone with no problems.
Miri Rom Here: http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2520
Have you tried a RMNET based android build. The data connection with those is slower but generally more stable. I use ppp but do get the data drop off. but turning the mobile data off and turning back on again sorts the problem.
It would probably better to post such questions in the android general section.

Same problem here. Signal drops quite frequently and for now i like the sense builds which you cant switch to 2G (unless im missing something). With other builds if i switch to 2G its sort of fine but slow data connection.
Same here, I live in holland and use the 2.14 Radio. I don't have a data plan yet (the phone is brand new), so it doesn't really bother me.. yet
we really do need a fix for this
Is nobody havin an idea?
Me 2
I´m having the same problem...anybody know a cure for this?
no problems here ... 2.10.5 radio
Same problem here,tryed different combo's with wm and Android,radio's etc......signal drops now and then.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Always signal drops here.. 35% of the time. Mesured with battery indicator.. only in Android not in winmo and I didnt find the right radio and rom for less drops.
Thats so strange. About every 10mins i have a totally data loss. Tried different radios and roms. Nothing helped. As i tried 2.14 i had strong echo issues.
i uploaded some screenshots. They're all taken at the same place. So you can see how strange these reception changes are...

Boy I'm glad to see this thread, I thought it was just me!
I am having exactly the same issue, and have done since using android builds. The only workaround I have is to switch on plane mode, and then switch it off again which seems to work for an hour or two. But then the signal goes all wonky again.
I wonder if this is also affecting the battery life. I'm sure I read somewhere once that loss of signal results in more battery use as the phone is constantly trying to locate signal.
I have tried a number of radio/rom combinations with no real change. As mentioned above, if I switch to 2G the signal seems more stable, but the data is unbearably slow.
I'm in the UK by the way.

Hope somebody's gonna know how to help us

me too!
I have the same problem. I might try the 10.2.5 radio as above?
I had this issue with Android that signal drops for no reason. The trick to my problem? Disable in the Netwok Mode "GSM/WCDMA Auto" and choose "GSM Only". Now the signal should work flawlessly without drops. It worked for me

ok. i know its not right to post it here. but please someone help ?

ok i seriously need some help. MODs please delete this if you feel like it. but i really want to know the answer for this since i posted it in the OT but no one replied.
my problem is signal issue with the EVO roms. specially from Mdeejay EVO roms
i downloaded the cayanogen rom and i have no problem with the signal " specially if i use it in 2G connection. its almost all the time full bars. while on 3g it sometimes varies between 2, 3 or full.
however, with Mdeejay eVo Sense v. 1.6 Revolution" and the other "warm evo" rom the he made. i do have the signal problem .
it sometimes show to me no bars at all just dots. even tho, if i call, or someone call, it goes through ...i think lol
it keeps on playing with the bars.
whats up with that? i am using a Tmobile version of the phone. " no i am not in US but i wanted extra ram/rom
i have been told that the HD Euro version has better signal. is that bs ?
anyway please please please someone help me with my question about the signal. its killing me. i love this rom so much i want to keep it. even the wallpapers are ****ing amazing. but this signal bar thing is driving me crazy
Honestly man i can't help you! I have signal issues also in all Android roms! I don't think Euro HD2 has a better signal!!! At least mine doesn't!
I feel so bad when i see an old nokia with a full signal and mine is 1 bar or none! I tried radio 2.12, 2.14, and 2.15 all the same and signal fluctuates a lot!
But i should tell you this: I like your nickname a lot!
for startes, have you tried flashing a different radio?

i might be an idiot if i answer this honestly but so be it. i didnt really flash the system. my friend did it for me . he told me its the best and fastest rom available for HD2 to froyo " built in andriom app to boot also "
all i do is just change the andriod roms by changing the folder on SD card and it does the rest lol.

i see your from lebanon ? keefek 7abiby
anyway. actually if you install the cayanogen rom. and switch the network signal to 2G only. it never drops below 3 bars in my case. which is good for me " i dont use 3G at all. and never planing to. i have wifi all around me "
I have the same problem with m-deejay builds.
The connection keeps dropping. Try using a darkstone build. Works fine for me.

I've tried to solve it by using darkstone's kernel but this does not work as well.
Others have this problem as well if you search in m-deejay's threads. I think you should try solving your problem there

That does not solve the problem for me. Thanks anyway..
ok i downloaded a program called no signal bar. from the market place.
it basically notify you when your phone is out of coverage.
and it works very well. so now. if i get a no signal bar from the rom, my signal notifier tell me that the phone is didnt lost signal. i try to make a call and it goes through. its accurate.
so i am happy for now. at least i am not afaird if losing signals when i see the fake bars from the rom playing .
i even tried to call my self when the signal no bars while the program " no signal bar"tells me i still have coverage. and it went through . i am happy panda... for now till i get a better fix for this
3G does not work when the bars are not displayed.
You can see this in the phone info application when you type *#*#4636#*#*

1- for some reason this number doesnt work for me. i am using Tmobile HD2 and the Evo Rom . might have anything to do with it ?
2- i really dont care about 3g. i just dont want the signal bar to keep showing there is no signal with its 4 dots crap signal when there is in fact a very good signal.
its like how the iphone 4 used to display signal that is not true.
are we the only 2 here who have this problem ? lol might be defective phones? lol
you can install the program called NETWORK from App store and basically change the setting to GSM (PRL) from that program

I don't think there is anything wrong with the phone.
I never had any issues with Windows Mobile or with any other Android build.

i have tried around 3 builds so far or 4.
the only builds that has perfect signal bar to me is Cayanogen Builds " where in the setting there is an option called " Use only 2G networks " and have that checked.
any other version " specially if its build based on EVO ? " has a problem for me.
i am surprised not many are talking about this really.

[Q] Is there a way to keep the Wifi connection stable?

This is a brand new unrooted Mytouch 4G, so I suppose I haven't done anything wrong yet. =P
I tried the wifi connection on this phone, and it usually works great. But I later found out the it's not very stable. I carry this phone with me and walk around the campus, it doesn't always receive wifi signal like my iPad would always do. Also, sometimes even when it shows that I am connected, the internet based software such as skype will not work (making phone call without hearing any voice).
Is there a software/app that can help? Or maybe I should root my phone for a better version of operating system?
On the stock ROM and all Sense ROMs, there is an option under WiFi Settings -> Advanced -> Best WiFi Performance. Try selecting that and see if it makes a difference.

WOO! lol i found someone in the same boat as me...I go college as well and my ipad connects fine, but my laptop and phone (for some weird reason do not). Ive tried a whole variety of differernt rom and kernel combinations including stock, but nothing would work. I really really really wanted to stay stock on my phone because I like it so much, but it just wouldnt work. Then I tried the evil 4g HD rom with fauxs sense smartass kernel and suddenly wifi was working amazing! It connected as soon as I clicked turn on wifi and stayed connected throughout the day even though I was walking around campus. Plus the rom has sense so its not straying too far from stock! I dont know what the reason is, but you should give it a go and see if it works for you!
I finally determine to try your method. I can't find evil 4G HD rom. Did you mean Evo?

GPS Problem with Gingerbread Firmwares

Hello,
Have anyone been able to get GPS to work properly after updating to Android Gingerbread.
Keep in mind you have to turn off Use Wireless Networks in Settings and then Try it.
Thanks and Regards,
Gana
Yea!
But i used GPS Aids.
Yes gana, gps does work on stock xxkph.. i get locks in less than 10s but when using custom rom...that's the time i'm having problems with
Man this bug really sucks then.
I am beginning to think it may have something to do with the Kernel
yup might be kernel...Nama also tried but failed, he might currently be working on it though. I really liked your rom let's wait for other inputs as well
