Okay folks, for some reason the magnetic sensor breaks on me when I flash this. I don't understand because I haven't seen anyone else mention this, but I'm far from new to flashing this phone, I've tried every possible scenario I can think of, flashing to stock w/repartition, THS build 2, then this, w/Glitch and without, but the compass shows no response. Everything else is flawless including gps, but on maps it just shows a round dot and magnetic compasses won't budge. I've downloaded it a couple times but if you could post the md5 for this I'll check that too. If anyone cares to help I will flash it again and pull a logcat (should've already I know). Any help would be awesome, I got to run this rom! Thanks folks.

The compass being broken is a known issue. It is in THS as well.

Crap! I hadn't noticed that! I can't believe I missed that. Thanks man, I guess I can feel like an idiot for this instead of feeling like I was doing something wrong. Great work on the port as usual Rick S
Just so everyone in this thread knows. Gingerbread odins do NOT flash a gingerbread bootloader. And every time you Odin back to stock you WILL need to reflash a gingerbread bootloader. You will face some random issues if you do not. Especially with glitch kernel

I use Heimdall to flash everything now due to constant Odin failure, but yeah I was definitely on GB bootloaders. I had a feeling my compass issue was known, but I couldn't find any posts declaring that as a known issue. The weird thing is, the compass actually works on the "GPS Essentials" app works, yet none of the others I've tried do. Crazy stuff...
Just an update... I'm having an intermittant issue with sms. Sometimes it will work, sometimes it says something like...unable to send, will retry when connection is restored...or something like that. It has to do with the framework.jar smali files. I just have to figure out what's up with that...otherwise everything is working great. Not much difference from the previous aokp build, icons in rom control are different, along with some minor differences. It does seem a lot snappier though using 6.5 as the base...not that the previous build was slow or anything...but there is a difference.

just out of curiosity, what issues? I've never flashed the gb bootloaders. I'm on 6.5 w/ glitch..... I'm also confused at why verizon stock gb doesn't have gb bootloaders. thanks.

pm if you need another tester for this stuff, I'd love to try it out and see if that problem happens to me too
