Wouldn't you know it, upgraded to 3.0 and my GPS won't lock LOL.
Tried fasterfix and a couple of different modems. Guess I'll flash back to 2.9.2 to see if GPS works there first since its the easiest thing to do and I'll report back.

you know, that's the first thing I do after flashing a rom. I run outside and try to get a GPS lock lol All the other stuff is put aside until I get solid lock. Good luck. GPS on 3.0 worked for me right off the bat.

Is there a way to check each call duration in the call logs because I can't find it? I if not can this be implemented?

There are plenty of third party apps that will do this. It is not a feature of the embedded android Gingerbread OS.
Edit: Poor choice of words. I meant it's not a feature I've ever seen embedded.

You know, I think it may be my Waze navigation app also. Somebody just posted that theirs isn't working either.
Anyone know how to use the app GPS Status? I think it's locking but I have no idea how to read it unless it's supposed to generate an error if the gps can't lock.

I think once you get locked, it'll show how many satellites you're locked on. That's how I use it. I also use GPS test and it does the same thing but shows the satellites in a bar graph. Then I just use Google maps and try to GPS my position right there. It'll start off with like 1500 meters, so I just exit out and go back in and see if it gets more accurate.

Make sure you turn off wifi if you're connected to a router. I've notice when I'm on wifi, Google maps keeps the accuracy at 20 meters and not closer. Without wifi and just on 3g/gps, i can get an accurate reading of 6-8 meters.

Ok perfect. Yes, my GPS is fine. I guess the Waze network is down. I really hope it's a temporary thing, it's such a cool nav app. I had to rely on my regular car GPS today

For a great list of safe apps to remove, download (this link is on the OP):

http://www.buildarom.com/E4GT/Calkulin's_Bare_ROM_Converter_for_E4GT_v2.0.zip

Open it with 7-zip then open the Remove apps with Notepad++ or something similar. It is a great list of apps that are safe to remove. You can even edit it to remove all the apps that you want while leaving the rest.

(7-zip and notepad++ are windows applications.)

edit: s9amme beat me to it also this link lists all the removed apks without needing to download open with notepad.

I just installed using the link you provided.

Everything looks great except how do I get the clock back? Or is there another clock you guys recommend?

Any and all removed apps can be found in "/sdcard/Removed_Apps"

To push them back to system apps, you will have to push them to the system folder using adb or root explorer or something else of that type. There are a lot of clocks available, though. So if you are unwilling to do the research, a new clock may be easiest. Clocks are not a priority for me, so I am not in the know as far as comparable or better clocks

but if you search these forums, I am sure that you will find a lot of information.

Don't get me wrong, Telenav and Google are ok but once I used Waze for a few days, it's pretty amazing. The voice interface is better, and so many people are using it that you get realtime traffic, police, accidents announced to you as you're coming up to them.

OMG dude, Google 'call duration android'. To find ANYTHING on the internet the key is keeping it simple when doing a search.

Guys...need a hand as I must be missing something stupid...

I've been running 1.3 since release without issue. However, I have been unable to flash 1.3a or 1.4.
any thoughts?

Started replying and just realized you're in the wrong thread dude!

da*nit, Thanks tdunham. All the threads are starting to look alike

haha

After replying I went ahead and downloaded Waze for myself. It looks cool. Maybe a little cartoonish but what the hell lol I'll give it a try tomorrow on the way to work. There are quite a few users in the Dallas/Ft Worth area so hopefully the traffic is accurate enough.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Thanks given!

It is a pretty fun app for gps. Wiped data on mine and its working again. Give it a couple of days though it takes a little getting used to but grows on you.

Thanks, I just ended up using the small sense clock widget. Perfect for my needs.

I really don't understand all the people that have nothing but bad feedback for this ROM... People there is nothing wrong with 3.0. On the contrerary it is smooth and fast as fu**... if you guys are experiencing lags, errors, crashes, etc. Then YOU guys are doing something wrong... either you guys are not wiping something or just fu**ing up one way or another... if YOU guys don't know how to flash properly go to YouTube search for QBKING77 and check out his videos.. he shows ALOT of tutorials... and if that doesn't help then get the fu** out of deving your android phone and go get an iPhone you should fit right in... guys but seriously Calks is one of the best devs here in the E4GT forum.. instead of crying like pussys try to figure out what went wrong.. BTW I highly recommend fresh installs for all roms and PLEASE if your one of those people that just blame the devs for your own mistakes then please stop being lazy and create your own ROM I'm pretty sure yours should rock.. hahahaha....

Dude, settle down internet badass...

Your ROM is running with no problems? Great. If someone else is having problems, that doesn't mean they're flashing their phone wrong. Every phone has a different environment and variables. Changing one little built in setting on the phone could give someone a problem with another feature down the road.
