Every possible way to fix the GPS bug in CM7

I have tried SEVERAL ways to fix it and none have worked. New radios, apps like gps status, trying a new gps.vision.so file, and other ways that I can't remember.
The only thing that I haven't tried is going back to a new rom with working GPS, enabling it, and then going back to a nandroid backup. Might try this tomorrow. Which rom should I try that has a working GPS?
What other ways to fix my gps have I overlooked?
Thanks guys! You guys are always a big help!

What is this "bug" you're talking about? I get a gps lock in about 10 seconds..

rc1 gps ok, rc2 can't find right gps fix
When I first installed RC1, I replacing the gpsvision.so or whatever that file was did fix it....since RC2 haven't found that correct fix file....Anyone have a link to the whatever gpsvision.so the G2 likes with RC2?

Multiple CM7 users have been reporting problems with the GPS on numerous Nightlys. You're one of the lucky ones who hasn't been screwed by the bug lol.
Back to the topic, which Gingerbread ROM has an official working GPS? As in ONLY a FEW people complaining about having gps issues. Thinking about using a Sense rom to get gps working.

For my Desire Z and CM-7.0.0-RC2 I had to downgrade radio to get GPS working.
26.04.02.17 works for me and 26.06.02.27 (latest now) does not.

I can confirm that for CM7 RC2 on my G2 can not obtain a GPS lock.

My DZ works normal

Ditto for me. GPS stopped working when I installed CM 7 RC2.

GPS stopped working in mine as well when I went to CM7 RC2 and hasn't worked since. I'm now running the latest RC. I did get mine to work by flashing a different radio...as soon as I did that, GPS locked. I went back to the original radio I had before and GPS still works.
I think it's just a case of CM7 not reading the radio correctly until the radio gets flashed and forces CM7 to rediscover it. That's just what I THINK is going on from personal experience in computers...if it's wrong, please someone correct me.

I've been using the nightlies every since they started churning them out, The GPS stopped working on one of the builds and I never noticed. I'm currently on build 35 and I simply flashed my radio and GPS locks within seconds now..

Issues with Royal Glacier

Having some issues with the Royal Glacier ROM
I have version V1.2 & Froyo Faux123-V0.9.3 Kernel
Im getting foreclosing issues with apps
Video camera lags at times
Notification issues with some apps
I thought the ROM with this Kernel was the best to slove the issues?

How long have you been having issues and did you use titanium backup to restore apps? That is the kernel that came with the Rom, have you tried any others? I am not sure why you would be having FC isuues or lag. My suggestion would be to wipe cache and dalvik cache and then reinstall the rom over the top of your current one. If that doesnt work, you can try a full data wipe/factory reset. Royal Glacier v1.3 will be out soon. You can also try that.

I did not back up apps as I was ok with downloading them again, since I don't have that many apps on my phone. I believe the kernel was not on the ROM when I flashed it over. I read the thread about changing kernels, which I did.
I followed all information to the teeth when I rooted my phone, if i do a full wipe my phone will still be rooted S off correct? ROM first then Kernel, correct?

Typically one would try to run fix_permissions when FCs happen in a known stable built.

My thread says nothing about changing kernels. Yes your phone will still be rooted after you wipe.

I am having an issue when im on edge my phone reboots itself when getting or sending data. has anyone else had this problem or is there something i can do??

The issues I'm having have to do with the camera. Everytime I take a picture it seems to mirror it. And another is when I try to send an mms video, the messaging app fc's. are there any known fixes or are these bugs? Can someone point me to a fix so that i can solve my issues?
Sorry, I read the wrong title on the thread. These issues are happening to me in Royal Ginger 1.6

What version are you on? Have you changed kernels or done any mods, or are you just running it how it came?

I forgive you since you have "drunk" in your name

I was on 1.3 just how the rom came.

I'm on Royal Glacier 1.3 and the only thing I get on FC is my market. It does that over and over. Also I get an upside down screen. happened on Both things happened on 1.2 and 1.3
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App

it wont let me edit yet, but forgot to say, I am useing the kernels that came with the roms, I didnt try any other, also I did a full wipe before going to 1.3, cleared all data

My suggestion for both of you would be to give the stock kernel from post #5 in my thread a flash and see if that helps anything. Make sure to wipe cache and dalvik first. That at least gives us a starting point to try and figure out what is going on. Thanks

I formatted the system from step 5, I didnt do that the first time and I believe that fixed the upside down screen, mostly just having a prob with the Market FC'ing, so I will run the stock kernel to see if that will fix the Market FC'ing, I will run this stock for a while and let you know the out come of it TrueBlue_Drew, Thanks
Update: I have ran the stock kernel all day and no Market FC, Normaly it's random but hasn't done it at all today so far

fc
hey just wiped my ice glacier data and also the cache and flashed royal glacier v1.3, followed by flash of royal glacier blue theme, my maps and navigation do not work, I tried downloading maps from the market and it says : Duplicate Provider Authority, any advice?

when you install a CM7 nightly then the radio isn't changed.
It install only the ROM.
Why this question about the radio version?

i thought the problem of the reboot could be the Radio...

I have EXACTLY the same problem...
Well, i'm experimenting some freezing issues with my Htc Legend on CM 7.03, when the wifi is on, i launch Android market (or something else... like trillian, a game etc..) in order to search apps or upgrade installed ones, after few swipes... : big freeze, then reboot.
i'm experimenting this problem since the first stable release.
I'm running LauncherPro Plus as Home Replacement, have S2E (for A2SD) and the 7.13 radio.
I would just know if someone else do have this issue too.
I was using Blayo before without any freezes.

same problem here too.

I had the same with one of the nighlies (87). I had Go Launcher has homescreen replacement.
Running 7.0.3 with ADB there were no issues anymore!

will go to 7.0.3 - thanks. by the way, what does adb do to the phone whilst not plugged in?

These WiFi reboots sound similar to those in ogo2's Sense 2.3 ROM, I wonder if they're linked?

Well ogo's, rom is 97% cyanogen 7, and cyanogen 7 has had these wifi issues since they started using htc code (see post in dev section).

partial work-around
well, going back to the latest stable version of cyanogenmod (7.0.3 at this time...even though i will miss the better responsiveness of adw in the newer nightlies) and using wifi fixer is a partial work-around to this problem for m.

Hello.
Could you please tel me where can I download diferent versions of radio for the Legend?
Have almost 0% of wifi and mobile coverage after installing CM 7.03.
Thanks!

Has anyone any experience with wifi network, which requiers to enter user name and password, first time you open the browser? I have such case at work, and my problem is tha this first page just won't load. It works ok on my coworkers phone (nexus s). Any suggestions what can I try. I've tried with Skyfire browser and with nativ cm browser, but it doesn't work. I'm using CM 7.0.3 stable

Wifi seems to be fixed in Cyan 7.1.0 RC1 at least is is on mine.

[Q] Bluetooth & WiFi Problem with Virtuous Fusion ROM

I'm having a problem with having both bluetooth and the wifi being on while running Virtuous Fusion ROM > 1.0.1. If WiFi is on and once bluetooth is turned on, wifi continues to work for maybe 5 minutes and then wifi shows to be connected, but it won't transmit any data. Once I turn bluetooth off and turn wifi off and then just turn the wifi back on, wifi works.
I don't have this problem with v1.0.1 of the ROM, but I've tried every newer version (doing a full wipe or doing an upgrade, tried both) and all of the revisions have this problem for me.
I'm a new member so the forums don't allow for me to post this as reply to the ROM thread in the development forum. Can someone help me, or at least repost this as a reply in the Virtuous Fusion ROM thread?
Thanks.

which version are you using i am also using that sense rom v1.0.6 and wifi and bluetooth work fine

I've tried every version, except 1.0.6, but the changes made from .5 to .6 don't sound like they're going to make a difference.
Maybe it is something with my phone, but I've done a full wipe through clockwork recovery with every version and I keep having the problem. The only version that works is 1.0.1.

my last try would be to completely wipe data,cache,and cache partition and reinstall the newest version...if not it could be your kernel perhaps

I've done all that and tried a different kernel, same problem. This is why perhaps I think it might be a bug in the ROM code.

their might be...not all phones react the same to roms but hopefully that bug can be fixed so you can enjoy ur Fusion rom

I had this problem as well. I thought it was caused by an app called "In-app Wifi Toggle" that somehow got backed up by Titanium from my previous ROM, which I restored onto this ROM without thinking. When I uninstalled it, Wifi was working fine.

I tried looking for this app on my phone and it wasn't there, thanks though...

I'm pretty sure that's just a know bug with that Rom. Same with my phone.

Really? I searched the ROM thread and couldn't really find a mention of it...

I am having some difficulties along these lines but not directly effecting bluetooth use, Wifi just cuts in and out even with me being right next to my router. I dont use bluetooth so I cant really recreate the problem to try and find a suitable solution.
My wifi problem might be because I am using 1.0.5 though so updating right now

Internet Stops; Requires Restart

Recently I have had this issue with CM7 where the internet/market would no longer work until I restarted the device. It would work for a period then require another restart. The odd thing is I have had this issue with CM7 the last few times I have had it installed and it its been with the official stable release and 2-3 different nightlies. When I switched to ARHD it works just fine and I do not see this issue.
I have tried reinstalling the ROM, before you ask. Anybody have this issue as well? It only happens with anything requiring data and I do get SMS and phone calls just fine. But everything is solved after a restart.
Right now I am using the CM7 stable, LordMod 8.2 BFS kernel and none of the apps are different than when it was working with ARHD.

Please search before opening a new thread. This has been covered alot lately.
This is a problem with CM based roms that have been use the BFS kernel. Swap it to a CFS. Still happens but not as often. A search would have told you this. Thread closed
