Im currently on cm 7 nightly 166. I've tried Generation X v6.3 and cm7.1 rc1 and still there are problems with the gps locking on, and even if it does lock on its off by about 40 feet. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Gps status from the market is your best option... Dl it hit the menu button, select tools, select manage a-gps state, select download.... Let it do its thing and keep the dot in the circle...
what do you mean keep the dot in the circle? IS that to calibrate it ?

That's the bubble level ("pitch and roll" in the Tools, bubble in the Settings). Wow, I had no idea it had so many settings.
I'm shocked it doesn't have furlongs per fortnight as a choice for speed display

The gps is still very broken.
I did the ##gpscrlx# trick, but that didn't help - when I turn on gps and try to use maps, the notification icon for gps doesn't even appear.
Any other ideas for fixing this? Or is it going to be fixed only in the final?
Also, gmail is also still broken.
When doing ##GPSCLRX# did you load Google Maps and let it get a GPS lock while still in the Sense ROM? It always works for me when I get the GPS to attain a new lock before restoring nandroids.
Also, if I remember correctly, the GPS icon won't show up until it's being used. You can have it turned on all day and never see it in the notification bar until it's being used. I know this is the case with MIUI, and I'm almost 100% sure that it was the same way when I was still running CM7

It's like that on any rom. The GPS icon only shows when there's a program using the GPS

Yes I did that.
Btw, gps icon never shows up. Even when using maps, or gps status app.
It's just never there.
poops, nvm.
We all know gps is broken for some. It will be fixed before final. #closethread
swyped from my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
Two more complaints about rc3:
1) gmail doesn't format text properly (to full screen width).
2) market doesn't show any apps restored with titanium backup, even after clearing cache and rebooting several times.
Any changes in recent nightlies?
Any updates from developers?

What is your point?
I already said that gps icon NEVER shows up, period.
Icon shows for me, even when opening browser it pops up for a few seconds. In fact sometimes I cant get the icon to go away! Closing all GPS apps and that dang icon will just sit there until a reboot

That sucks for you mine only appears when its being used. Here's a suggestion, delete your cm nandroid, start completely fresh(wipe everything) with cm7 make a new nandroid, go into sense(get a lock) do the fix again leave gps ON, then nandroid back to cm7. Sounds like alot but what else can you do. I had to do the same, I guess my nightlies kept piling up and somehow knocked my sense GPS fix out.

You do NOT need to bump your post once, let alone twice. Read the main thread for CM7, there are TONS of people who have it working. If yours isnt working, do a full wipe and flash again.

Yes, I said that in post #4.
Hello, as I said in the thread title i have a problem with the screen lock after waking up the phone. It remains stuck, until i push the power button again to close the screen, and then it's working like it should. The problem appears one at 6 or 7 times i wake the phone.
I have tried to change the screen lock method, but i get the same problem, with the pattern activated.
I have also changed two roms, so I guess this is not the issue. It is more likely that an app is the cause of this, but i have the same apps as I had on my Galaxy Nexus, so it is difficult to figure out what is the app causing this. I have paranoid android with franco kernel.
Does anyone have a clue about what the problem could be?

Hi,
Please tell me if I have well understand :
When your phone is in standby mode (screen off) and you push power button, the screen lock appear but you can't unlock it ?
That mean the screen doesn't respond some time (1 to 6-7) after wake-up the phone ?
I don't know why but I want to ask you if you have under-volted your phone ?

Hi, you have understand well, that is the problem i am facing. It becomes unresponsive quite often.
No, i did not change anything regarding the cpu, nor the settings in franco kernel.

That's strange, I have the same settings as you (PA + Franco) without any problems.
I know that Franco's Kernels are great but this is the way that I should follow to try to found the problem.
Do a full wipe and re-install PA + PA Gapp.
Don't install Franco Kernel right now and do the test with PA stock kernel.
If the test is OK, the problem come from Franco's kernel -> ask in Franco's thread
If the problem is still there -> ask in PA thread
You haven't any other problem with your touch screen ? Only with the lock screen ?

I have flashed the stock kernel, for a while it seemed to work better, but 5 minutes ago the screen lock remained stuck again.
I have made a full wipe for the instalation of PA coming from rasbelly, one week ago, still the same problem. As I said, i am almost sure that the problem is caused by an app, but it is quite difficult to see which app is causing this....
screen unlock
Hey I had a similar problem. Do you have Lightflow installed? When I had stock everything, enabling additional LEDs including the LCD backlight had no issues. But apparently with PA and Franco kernel it switches off backlight when you unlock screen. Light flow switches it off. Try disabling that control of LCD backlight maybe? That worked for me
Currently running the latest Chroma rom with the stock kernel. The little circle that's supposed to show up around the lock icon at the bottom doesn't show up 90% of the time (http://prntscr.com/abhku3). I'm trying to unlock it with a bluetooth (not NFC) fitness band.
This isn't a problem with the band, because I tried putting Face Unlock as well, but the detection doesn't show up most of the time.
Is there any way to fix this?

I haven't had an issue with smart unlock before, I pair it with my Moto 360. I don't know if it's the kernel because I personally use the Taurus kernel and not the stock one, that might be a reason but again I don't know for sure at all. Maybe on Multirom I'll install a second Chroma and leave it on stock and see if I can get it to reproduce what you're having, I'll get back to you in about 20-30 minutes on how it goes.
-Edit- Might be a bit longer since I need to redownload the latest build. My internet can be slow at times
-Edit 2- I haven't had the issue, at least with my watch. Not too sure how much further I could help you :/

It is a bit strange. I do have one final thing to test out actually. I just remembered my girlfriend got a generic bluetooth fitness band thing for her senior year, I'll charge that up and see if that gives the same issue since I still have the multirom boot with it. It'll take probably an hour to charge it since it's just a generic one.

I'm certain it's not the band's fault cause gave unlock isn't detected either. I'll try the pure nexus and cm roms to see if it makes a difference.

Especially if the band was working fine on other roms or devices. CM 13 is my main daily driver rom and I haven't had a single issue with several bluetooth devices I own, I always will recommend it xD The fitness band is almost charged and I'll test that out here real soon

I only got the band 2 days ago and have just tested it on Chroma.
Quick question, does CM13 support Volume Key to unlock AND double tap status/nav bar to lock? My power button is screwed up and it barely registers. Also, are the latest nightlies stable or should I go with an older build, if I don't plan to update my rom in the next month?

Double tap to sleep, yes. Let me quick boot into it to make sure for the volume key. If you get Kernel Auditor and the right kernel you can have double tap to wake which is wonderful. Ok it does have the option for volume key unlock. I haven't had any issues with the nightlies, a while back I had one that would randomly freeze my touchscreen but that was early last month.

Sweet, I'll give CM a shot! I hope the smart unlock was a rom problem and not a hardware one. My phone's nearing the end of it's life, so it's more than possible.

Hello ,
I am on DeoXPer Pure MM 3.0 (Touchwiz) Rom what is an really great one.
But now after some weeks (installing this and that) I noticed whenever i disable wifi the wifi-icon starts to blink. It is alternating within ca. 1.5 seconds. Its not only a visual effect - in the wifi section the slidebutton ist alternating too. When I touch the button i can reactivate wifi and the near wlan is connected. The problem is that i would like to deaktivate wifi sometimes to safe battery. This strange behavior is very batterydraining. I wiped memory reinstalled apps (with data via titanium) but at some point the missbehavior reoccours. Do you have any hints for me to identify the misbehaving app or config?
Thanks in advance

I have used alot of roms but I always go back to stock as I have had less bugs that way. If I was to flash another rom I would choose Omega rom or just stick with stock and a custom kernel. Cheers.
Hi guys,
I have to fire 7 in tablets both bought at the same time from same place. Both are running the same Lineage-12.1 ROM (12.1-20170802-Unofficial-ford)
But for some reason when i keep them side by side one of them has a very dull screen brightness where as the other is nice and visible. I am not sure if this has to do with the hardware or some missing setting in the one that is dull. I tried making both 100% bright from the upper menu but the screen difference is still the same.
The bottom image is the brighter one. Any idea if some setting somewhere is causing this?

On checking further I noticed that the tablet which is showing dull color seems to show the exact same even when I adjust the brightness slider in the top menu. When the slider is on 0 or 100% its the same. that tells me that the software slider is somehow broken?

Known kernel issue with custom ROMs. Symptoms typically rectified with a reboot. If no joy try a full power down with a 5 sec pause before restarting.

Sorry for the late response Davey126, for some reason it didn't post my reply when I used my cell phone the other day. I tried to restart a few times but still have the same screen issue the brightness controls dont respond. Will upgrading to the latest release help with this issue? Is there any other fix to permanently fix the problem?

Probably not. Likely have to sideload a full version of FireOS to refresh/replace the kernel - then start over. There is no known 'fix' for the problem other than keeping memory load to a minimum (or using the swap tweaks that I outlined elsewhere).
