This is a general thread about gps on polaris,so if you have question feel free to post it!
I made the first:
i try latest version of nbh (01-06-10) by dzo (but Kallt_kaffe too), using gps test and after 15 min i can't fix my position.
Any ideas?
seems to me it always make a "cold start"...
28-05 nbh gps wworked very good
Also having similair problems with GPS
I'm using cygic navigation and after +/- 10 minutes program hangs and doesn't reconnect
Same problem with different versions of android (all tests with DZO 01-06-10)
No problem with aqtrans and latest dzo...
It might be a myn's warm donut bug?
@iseeka what system do you use?

even wierd, i cannot androidinstall with 1-6.nbh. got into blank screen, and stays there. flash it twice with task29 still not working. than i get back to 24-5.nbh and it works
till the moment the faster gps fix i have seen is with the nbh of february, but you miss all the updates in the other apps...
i could downgrade from 1.06 to 28.05 nbh normally without reinstall system, but still slow.
only difference is that seems to find more satellites with more strenght...but fix 5 or 6 minutes.
new kallt kaffe to try today

i noticed your signiture link to dzo panel3.nbh but your's is pola100. which means you should only can use panel1. how you do it??? i just noticed that why it does not work on my polaris as mine only work on panel1
sorry saw your answer here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6587528&postcount=4
I'm going to try this too....

dow we need to change libgps too?
@ahhl
I think that dzo release only one nbh in the future and we have to use Loser's NBH Editor v3.0 to change panel type in the future.
which android is ver 2.x
myn rl5 still ver 1.6 isn't it?
what else we can run on our polaris? i am willing to try. so far only myn rl5 work best in term of speed, workable gps, bt,wifi.
Tried Aqtrans' CM-5.07 V1.3
First GPS fix ... a lot of time
but later it makes hot start and get a fix in 4-5 secs
Suffering eclair problems though....
6-7 sec to open phone dialer
no camera..
GPS TESTS
Hi, I made a several test with GPS... I used GPS Test application. In many times the GPS Test show that the phone has got for example 5-6 satellietes "in view" but zero "in use", so it couldn't lokate the position etc. Sometimes it helped that I turn off the phone, remove the battery for 10s and after that sometimes the phone can "use" the satellites for positions but only until the phone goes to sleep, after wake up the phone again dosn't use any satellites... :-(
[Pola100] ; [NAND] ; [Myn’s Warm Donut RLS 5 - 04/24/2010] ; [DZO nbh 24-05-10 panel1] ; [bt/wifi fix update]
i resolve the problem change completely my setup
Today I tried NAVIGON 7.
It works, but with a lot of problems:
- Sometimes it freezes all system (only a reset can resolve)
- Very slow on menu
- GPS position is missed for some seconds, then is fixed for some seconds, then is missed for some seconds (and so on.... fixed/missed).
My setup is Vanilj Rls5 with zImage 29.04.10 and 2 Gb (1.30 Fat32, 256 ext2, 256 ext2). But My Fat32 partiton has very very few space free (5 Mb Free).
Any suggestions ?
Remove some maps
I have Only Italian Maps on Navigon.
My SD is almost full because in the same Partition Fat32 I have WinMo and Android data on SD (but for Android I selected System and Data on Ext2).
I will try to make more free space... but i don't think this is problem.

Wait, gps take much time to recover position from a cold start.

Windows Mobile 6.1 Only
Thought of starting this thread to get an idea of GPS performance on OEM and Custom ROMS with different radios. According to most threads and my personal experience the GPS performance is sub-par on 6.1 and highly unreliable. It would be great if I can get some feedback on the following:
1. ROM Version
2. Radio
3. Time for Cold Fix
4. Time for Hot Fix
5. QuickGPS Version
I think this thread would help lot of members who rely on GPS navigation on a day to day basis to make up their mind on ROM/Radio combo - specially me.
Thanks.

So you are back on 6.0 permanently? I have been debating on this for over a week now
Have a look at this link - no real answer to this issue but possibly one of the recomendations will work for you

Thanks for the detailed feedback.
If you don't mind me asking are the above results constants or random. I am wondering whether this odd behavior is device or device/radio/rom related. Some don't have this issue at all and some do. Beats me.
It's all very bizarre, I've been watching posts on this for weeks trying to see some kind of pattern, but there just doesn't seem to be one. Some people have serious problems (like me), others have perfect GPS, but not one of them seems to be on quite the same combination of ROM/radio/SPL etc - or rather those that are seem to be split randomnly between the two camps.
It's a very frustrating topic to get into, because you'll inevitably get people telling you the problem doesn't exist (because they've not seen it) or offer some magic bullet that just doesn't work.
For the record I'm using the stock HTC WWE 6.1 rom/radio. Whenever I try to get a lock just walking down the street, or on the bus, it can take up to 20 minutes at times. The other weekend I was actually using it in anger on a roadtrip, relying on it for directions, and it worked brilliantly for two solid days, with lock times mostly under a minute. It just doesn't make any sense. I'd say it was unreliable, but when I actually did need to rely on it, it came through.
1. ROM Based on HTC Official 3.29.707.0
2. Radio 1.65.20.29
3. ColdFix - 20-seconds - (you mean following a soft-reset right?)
4. HotFix - 2-seconds - (hotfix is when you have closed down your GPS App (TomTom in my case) and then restarted it but haven't soft-reset the device right?)
I am counting from after TomTom starts and immediately when it begins to talk to the GPS module (if you go to the GPS Status screen it initially says 'No GPS device!', then a couple of seconds later the little yellow/black circular symbol begins to flash and it says 'Poor GPS reception' - this is when I am timing it from from).

Agreed 100%.
Just when I tell myself it's working the problem starts again. I used to be so content with the 6.0 GPS performance.
Furthermore, I think the device plays a major role as well. There is no reason for 2 identical phones having stock rom updates to spit out two different GPS lock times. Although I complain about mine the longest lock time for me have been 3 minutes.

I have just tested this again, just to verify...
Soft-reset, wait a couple of minutes for Kaiser to settle down and then start TomTom and open the GPS Status screen, wait for 'Poor GPS reception' to appear and start timing..
1. Cold-Fix this time was 28-seconds.
2. Hot-Fix this time was 6-seconds.
Still quite good though
I am actually sat in the house with the Kaiser next to the window but it is quite a clear day.

Constant, give or take 1-2 seconds.
Edit-
To Boinng,
Although I have little issue getting GPS reception, I must say that when I was running Garmin's ROM, and one of Dutty's (don't remember which one of the 1000's), my GPS signal was great, but my software performed really poorly; sometimes only updating in 1 mile increments.
TT7 vs. TT6???
I seem to be getting much slower starts since I converted to TT7. I tried this morning and after 5 minutes, just ended up resetting my quick GPS and then it took about 45 secs.. I've done the change to "other NMEA . . . " and no consistent result.
I also have no idea why the radio would make a difference with this as I've always thought that only dictated your phone reception and that the GPS was in itself its own device. Any clarification would be appreciated.
Breakthrough?
I just posted this in another thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2393635#post2393635
Basically it looks like my own GPS performance has been improved substantially by switching from the 1.65.16.25 radio (the one which came with the original HTC 6.1 update) to the newer 1.65.17.56, which they seem to have quietly snuck out with a new version of the same ROM (the ROM itself is still 3.28.405 so I just used the radio only version someone posted).
I wouldn't say it was quite 6.0 level, but it's a lot closer, for me anyway.
I did have to install HardSPL 3.28 (to replace the stock HTC SPL 3.28) first before I could change radio, I suppose it's possible that had a bearing too?

I have tried this and it works sometimes but not constant - at least on my device. This bug is killing me. I rely on Navi almost everyday and would hate to go back to 6.0.
Also I have noticed that even hot fix times vary with 6.1.
With 6.0 I used to get hot fix under 15 sec. indoor all the time.
My question to all....
Although we blame OS, Radio and SPL can this symptom be device related too?
i am also in the same boat as most of you the GPS just plain sucks ass on my kasier no matter what the radio rom combination it seems. i use the application Seagate which is just like quickGPS and i also use quickGPS sometimes its super fast on cold starts sometimes its more than 25 minutes and i give up because of battery drain for nothing. i dont want to go back to 6.0 period so i hope we can all work on this and get things working properly. i wonder what .dll's are in control of the GPS and what parts of the radio rom also control the GPS that would be a good place to start and see what we can modify a little for better performance.

It took a few SR's before the GPS and the new radio clicked, but it did make a huge diffrence here in AZ. I had the same 20+min (if ever) fixes on a cold start before and getting an indoor fix was a laugh, hot or cold. I just did an indoor hot fix in under 20 secs! Cold fix indoors is somewhat dependant on where, but after running visual GPS, no issues
Death V.4 plus the latest Kaiser (not neon) radio seems to be the charm for me, but maybe it IS handset/local specific.
I just wish the handset silencing issue was fixed, but I digress . . .
WM 6.1 HTC OEM official
OS 3.02.405.0 WWE
radio 1.58.26.20
coldfix -- about 1 minute
hotfix -- 5-6 seconds
I was surprised to have hotfix this fast. and the battery goes way longer than on 6.0.
great radio indeed.
A lot of people have problems with the TouchPro GPS especially for pedestrian use...
From stock the TP GPS is quite unsable in car especially with TomTom 7 and totally unusable for pedestrian use.
After 2 weeks of reading and testing tweaks, here are the results of my tests and the applied tweaks to enhance the GPS performance
A. With Advanced config 3.2 http://www.touchxperience.com/fr/ou...ads/9-advanced-configuration-tool-32-cab.html
1. disable A-GPS
2. disable GPS logging
3. logfile name must be empty
4. old logfile name must be empty
5. maximum size of logfile must be 0
6 delete the files : \windows\GPSLogFile.txt and \windows\GPSLogFileBack.txt
7. it seems that if TomTom is installed on a fast microSD decrease the lag(have to test to be sure)
With those changes car usage will be quite perfect
B. Then edit registry with TotalCommander http://ghisler.fileburst.com/ce/tcmdpocketarm.cab
Under: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\
- Drivers\GpsOneDevice\PollInterval -> 100 (default is 1000)
- Drivers\InputBufferSize -> 512 (default is 4096)
- Drivers\OutputBufferSize -> 512 (default is 4096)
- Drivers\SleepOnNoData -> 100 (default is 1000)
- Multiplexer\MaxBufferSize -> 512 (by default not present, you have to create it)
Tests to be done with buffers at 256...seems to be a little better
Tests to be done with other PollInterval value...seems to "drain" battery
With those tweaks pedestrian usage will be much better but not perfect...I explain.
You have to walk for a least 250m in order to have a reposition with mouvement on the map (before that, speed is always 0km/h) and then if you continue to walk there is quite no lag...and the speed reflect reality
...BUT if you stops you have to walk again for a least 250m in order to have a reposition with mouvement on the map and then if you continue to walk there is quite no lag...
Very strange indeed...
I hope this will help people...please test and feedback.
PS : tests were done with
TomTom_Navigator_7.450.9028_R3_VGA_black_edition
GoogleMaps 2.2.0.16 -- http://www.google.be/gmm/GoogleMaps.CAB
GPSTuner 5.4 -- http://www.gpstuner.com/download/GPSTuner_v5.CAB
I noticed GPS problems yesterday with Route66. Havent have time to test GPS lot before, just checked that it can find satellites and really works with Route66.
First while driving, Route66 got fix to satellite pretty quickly, but drop it then after couple seconds. Then couple secods of lag, again found satellites, couple seconds ok, drops again. This keeps going over no matter what, moving or staying stopped.
I then did soft-reset, no help. Then tried Google Maps with GPS, that worked no prob. After using Google Maps I returned to Route66 and strangely satellite fix was ok...
This might be just random satellite fix problem, but strange enough

Many of us have/had that issue so I can confirm you Its a device issue, not a satellite situation. The registry tweaks minimize that problem but I hope HTC solves the problem in his next driver/radio rom/... and the users hasnt to tweak their devices (95% of the users probably will never read this forum and they dont know how to "tweak" their devices
Thanks for sharing. I 'll check it.
Thank you!
I applied all the patches, my TP still doesn't want to find the sattelites...
F.....g hell!!! I tried anything,and morning I've got a fix with 5 satellites in 20secs,so it looks nice(yesterday evening I did the tweaks). But after 4 hours it can see 1-2 satellites,sometimes 3,very rarely 4 under blue sky. So 2 hours of my travelling from city-to-city I didn't get a fix! Co do pici s tym je!!??(sorry for slovak lng,but I cannot speak it english,because so wrong words english language doesn't have). I bought an useless technology and HTC is rolling on the floor laughing,how the customer is stupid. F..k them all with their technologies. Another thing is wifi...no comment is better. I will maybe buy an crazy Eten with Sirf3 and HTC with their stupid Qualcomm can go to hell. For what are all the technologies here,when they are working <20% of time? I am so angry on HTC,so when my kind of device will appear,I will immediately sell the Raph.

2. Applied the tweaks
3. Download last QuickGPS
4. Install TomTom
5. Have a little more patience...
Gook luck.

Did all that and the bloody phone is still not getting a fix on satellites...
I am confused in other way...
Why it does lock the satellites in 30seconds and it sees 8 sats.and few hours after it has problem with seeing 3 of them at the same place with same weather conditions? I believe,that tomorrow(when I will not needed to have the fix,anyway I will try it) will fix the satellites ASAP. Do the Raphael have a status-sensor,that knows,if I need it right now or not? That's my opinion,while it doesn't work,when I need it and works when I testing it...
I will s..t on whole GPS technology and I will trust the plain maps as before(unfortunately,that costs me some money/energy that I spend for that).
Totally amazing
This is just amazing. Thank you!
Now I get a fix in 10-15 seconds. Earlier it took several minutes... totally amazing...

For those how have still problems
1. Hard reset
2. Applied the tweaks
3. Download last QuickGPS
4. Install TomTom
5. Have a little more patience...
Gook luck.

tried this also and been driving around for almost an hour without results is that enough patience?
hmm, my gps was working normally, applied these patches and nothing changed..still working normally (no lags etc.)
Applied all the patches except one (I kept A-GPS on), and after testing with iGo it's working like a charm. With the latest QuickGPS data downloaded, it can still take - seconds to get a fix, but the positioning is accurate (no more 100-200m lag), the devices sees 4-6 satellites in the Belgian sky, and the navigation is finally usable on the Touch Pro. I'll make regular checks in the coming days and I'll report the results. Thanks for the tweaks!
With A-GPS enabled the GPS works great. I had it in my pocket with GPS tuner running while running in a forrest and he didn't lose my position and no lag. The problem: with A-GPS enabled TT7 loses the fix every second. Like 1 sec there is a fix, next there is not. And it keeps doing that. When I disable A-GPS it takes way longer to get a fix with TT7 but it holds the fix.
Tip: driving around makes it harder for the gps to get a fix.
gps problem
hi, i recently bought htc touch pro & i am facing problem to download gps on my phone could someone help me regarding this matter step by step.
thankx
This is usual thread all over net..
I have problem, a big one... Every cooked rom I have tried works great but GPS dont work. Fix takes 15 - 20 min quickgps updates normaly but no fix... with original rom and quickgps updated fix is under 30sec but i have problem with touch screen on original ROM. so i have spend 15 days of experimenting, flashing various roms, radios but no luck....
interesting is that when i connect external gps antena with amplifier i get fix around 1 - 2min.... then it works with integrated, but 2 hours later same problem...
Kaiser130 is my device
tried roms: shifu v1 & v2 basic & full, Dutty's WM6.1, REV_ROM_V8, SimpleOsManila, AtheneOS....
also i have tried exporting registry branch from original rom for quickgps and copyed quickgps files over but no luck.
no luck
I have used almost all of these roms and my lock is in 2-3 minutes. 1st, make sure you are using the recommend radio. If you use the wrong Radio, you will never get a lock. Also make sure it is not just your area; if there are only a few sat's then the GPS module in the phone will take for ever for a lock.

C'Mon dude really... 3rd post and you come out dropping bombs like "every" and "it's the usual" and "a problem... a big one"
I have used many different ROMs here too and have not had a single issue with GPS working!
I think "every" and "usual" is disrespectful to the cooks here and that your issue is likely hardware (hence your comment about it working w/ an external ant) or possibly between the screen and the seat
have you tried gpstest to check your com ports and then set it manually?
I also had the same issues
already changed the com port and radio from 1.65.16.25 until 1.70.19.09 (KAISER Radio)
As u see raf1987 has same problem as me, yesterday I have tried original HTC WWE 6.1 rom but with same result.
I dont mean to disrespect cooks, and dont see what is problem with me having 3 posts??
k2rolla503 Yes I have tried gpstest, nonigps plot.... they find satelites but no fix 1 to 4 satelites all time but no fix.. signall strength is normal in all roms (graphicaly to me).
I too have the same problem.
I find the GPS fixes to be very flaky. I've used both the ROMs from Laurentius up through V10 and now using Phoenix II.3.
Laurentius ROMs I found I had much faster lock time if I downloaded the ephimeral file right before I used my GPS. We are talking 24 hours between uses. This could mean the difference between a 2 minute lock and a 20 minute lock. I've never gotten GPSTest to show me anything other than starting...
On Phoenix II.3, the ephimeral file only last for 3 days instead of 7 like Laurentius. Once I saw the fastest lock in my life ever on this ROM, it literally must have locked in 15-30 seconds. I have never seen it do that again. Currently it's taking me a good 10-20 minutes to lock on average. I have to start up my GPS 10 minutes before I go anywhere just to get it warmed up.
I've also tried fiddling with the assisted GPS setting on both ROMs. I found that with Laurentius the fix is slightly faster. On Phoenix I haven't noticed any real difference in getting a fix aGPS vs GPS. Nor do I find it assists in tunnels.
The only thing that really bothers me about aGPS is that I get that dialup connection dialog that says it fails to connect every time I use TomTom. I have to hit dismiss before it appears to start trying to get a fix. I've tried reapplying the connection settings for AT&T, that didn't seem to help much. It is super annoying.
In the end, GPS does work, but like the OP, I found that my fixes were consistently faster on the stock ROM than the cooked ROMs. I too mean no disrespect and I appreciate the hard work that goes in to each and every one of these ROMs even if I don't use them. I too like the OP just want my fix to be as fast as those claimed here and elsewhere. It can be frustrating to hear about these fast lock times and have to suffer with long lock times. It's especially annoying to me because I travel for business a lot and find that I am now nearly half way to my destination before I finally get a lock.
While I may not have many posts, I do follow these forums regularly. I hope that my input will be constructively used to find an answer if there is one to be found.
I have no issue using L26's TF3D V4, Athine OS Jan 22, Mbarvian Solace 1.5 and Josh' Revealed 21500. All has the GPS working fine. I'm not that particular that I measure individual response time.
As long as it locks within 1-2 mins (from nothing), it's ok to me.
hmm.... i think , i found the solution... don't know if it could work for others
now, I use PDA corner from Abusalza... with Radio version 1.70.xx.xx
so, after flashing your new rom... make sure you update the GPS support programs like quick gps , etc
then, execute your GPS program ( I use Garmin for this).. and make sure you are outside of your house, or apartment, or wherever..
the reason why my tytn II could not find satelites is because I did it in my house, did not think that outside my house could work (because my Trinity could detect satelites in my house without any support GPS program like quick gps)
then... your tytn II should detect the satelites and GPS is activated...
NB: sorry for my bad english

I am having the same problem. The original Three (Australian) ROM would get a GPS lock within seconds.Now, I take 20smins to get a lock.
ROM version: AthineOS WWE
ROM date: 1/22/09
Radio Version: 1.65.24.36
Protocol version: 25.94.40.06H
I have just used GPS test and the only thing I changed was the baud from 4800 to 9600. Will try it out later, but hope it works.
http://www.smartphone.net/software_detail.asp?id=3170
PS Most of us know that GPS works only if there is line of sight with the satellites, so yes, I am outside on cloudless days when I try to get locks.
PPS If it dont work, I might go back to official ROM. http://www.htc.com/au/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=13&cat=2&dl_id=342.
flash back to WM6.0, there are no problems with gps. every fix in 30 sec.
Hmm I would like to go back to 6.0 but my provider has only this rom 6.1 for download that has touch screen problem...
Any link to 6.0 WWE would be helpful
Found 6.0 sry.... ill try and post reply
Search the Wiki. There're links to various WWE versions.
Hmm, I wonder then what the difference is between 6.0 and the higher version that causes this inconsistency in locking. This would seem to indicate software issue rather than a hardware issue. I love the newer ROMs but the inconsistency or complete latency in getting a lock can be extremely annoying especially when you need a lock quickly.

I changed the baud from 4800 to 9600 and so far, the GPS locks within 30 seconds. I need further testing, but perhaps the default settings of the cooked ROMs is causing this problem?
I have tried and sucesfuly cooked ROM from stock firmware, added some apps, replaced buggy touch.dll so far so good ROM is 6.1 (WWE 3.31.xxx) using radio 1.65.20.15 i think.
Yesterday cloudy weather with rain i got lock within 4min cold start after flash, today morning warm start 2min (still cloudy no rain) and around noon no clouds got lock in 5sec.
Big THANX to SHIFU for help with dll
help with dll?
hi Vratko,
could you provide more info on the dll that u got helped with?? cos as u can see, lots of us are facing the same problems....even i have tried all sorts of ROM's and radios....yet no success in getting a quick lock...any specific settings to be done?? any
Hi,
I have different problem on GPS, I am using Garmin DK Series, dated 01/16/09. The problem is if use GPS for more then 10 min, back of the kaiser started to heatup, if I turn it off, after a while it is fine. Otherwise, it is detecting the GPS faster. I have downloaded QuickGPS & SeaSGEE.
Is anyone having these problem.
Thanks

Can you please provide SeaSGEE link. What does it do? is it like quick GPS?
I was wondering if the Eclair version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=670240 is suitable to be used with Polaris, using the nbh from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=660158
It seems like people say good words about this build. Anyone tried it yet ?
Tried it today. I think it's fastest Eclair build for polaris i've tried. After some time of use it becomes almost as fast as donuts.
Anyway there is no wifi and bt. Wifi starts but does'n show any networks. It crashes regulary and reboots. No data with 3G... e.g. no data at all.
Tried with 29-04-2010 kernel (because of ADB support) without any updates.
Will try with paipo's kernel shortly.
UPD: with paipo's kernel it at least tries to scan, and return an error "Unable to scan for networks". With dzo's kernel it didn't scan at all.

I've not tested GPS.
you can now move up or down the volume for hear sound of the phone and more...
But I can't test data connection because I doesn't have data plan with my operator...

Have you guys tested the RLS5 ? It is from 8 may
RLS5 Features
- Much Faster System
- Extra Apps and Widgets are Now Optional
- Fixed Full Market (Thanks Pandemic187)
- Fixed Lockscreen Not Showing Up
- Fixed Power off option on red button (Reboot option still not functioning)
- Fixed Kaiser Wifi (Tested)
- Atttempt at fixing Apn Problem
- Fixed Voice Search Crash Problem
- Added More Stable Live Wallpapers To App Pack That work without Crashing on Sleep
The Donut version I've tried seemed very fast for me. The screen responsed much better then the WinMo. But when it was to making something else, opening a program, the browser, market... most of the time I get the screen with not responding to kill the app. How is this new release ? Faster or slower then Donut ?
It doesn't work booting from NAND with the latests .NBH. Does it?

After sometime, 3g data connection has been auto-configured without APN entry
whatever, that's a good news since data connection is more reliable than with myn 's last release with latest dzo's kernel
After saying that, that's an eclair build with all it's advantage: better readability even in 120 lcd density and better resolution management, better menu and 3d ability....
I was able to run copilot too with a good gps signal
The main issue (as always with eclair build at the beginning ) is battery lifetime
hope it will go better
Let's have fun !!
Has anyone make wifi work with this build for NAND?
I installed it today and it was really fine, but when I apply the latest wifi/BT, it doesn't boot (the android logo cycles indefinitely).
+1 ... same problem here.

what is fully good in this build :
- phone of course... and very very fast
- battery : you have to use last kernel of DZO...
- Wifi : no problem
- BT : no problem
- MMS : you can receive and send
- GPS with Igo : a bit slower after first installation
- GPS with Navigon : very fast
- synchronize data ok
- market (I think full but I'm not sure)
- live wallpapers
- and more and more...
I installed in nand.
I use it with ADW launcher : very beautiful and fast !!
I think you have to do all Kallt_kaffe advise for his build work well...
THANKS for them !!
Hope it works for all of Polaris users.
AND you can now upgrade your radio with this version 1.65.38.14

I can recommend it, too. For me, it's faster than Myn's Eclair RLS1. By the way, I managed to connect to my car kit successfully out-of-the-box with the latest kernel (.NBH). It experiences some slowdowns when running memory intensive applications and you switch back to, for example, Home Screen, but it's really good.
Congratulations to kallt_kaffe.
Nice!!
Its the same speed level as myns eclair rls 1.
For me its more stable than myns, but maby i made crap ;D
-----
The behavior when stressed is different from myns.. i got these lack untill the homescreen apears too. But overall it looks more stable.
How can i get these dots in the corner to switch home screens?
Can i change the way the middle button(all apps) behaves? In myns there is full screen and all apps are flying in, in this build the slider goes up, but it "feels" a bit small compared to myn :/
(and a offtopic question: nexusmod wallpaper from market dosnt work. is there a nexus like live wallpaper? Cant find the orginal one, i think its not in the market)
This is the only build working Wifi/BT for my Pola100, with PAIPO Zimage of 26/03/2010 !!!
It's a GREAT BUILD ... Maybe a bit slower than Myn's Eclair, but works perfectly!!!
Only a question:
- When I try to install "LAUNCHERPRO" ... AFTER installing nothing change on "Home" Screen. Nothing.
How Installing Launcherpro correctly ?
(My installation is on SD with Haret, Not NAND).
Please any help is appreciated.

I use this version of rom with a brand new battery. I use it about 2 houres, approx. 15 minutes of talk time and small WIFI and the battery is 70 percent. Is there any way increase uptime?
Hi, can you tell me which version of nbh and zImage do you use?
Use latest nbh and wait same days. The dzo kernel recalibrate the battery use.
The power drain is a quite big problem for our device :-(
I think you have to press one time on power button and a toolbox is coming to make your choice for launcherpro.
Cheers.

Manu33xtro, now that you mention it, I connected the car audio but I didn't test it. I'll have to make some tests to see if it works properly. It's a Parrot CK3100-LCD.
New build : Cm5.0.8
Maybe yes but you should test it...
And now Kallt_kaffe has release a new build port of CM5.0.8 : I will test it right now

i'm so curious about it !!
Hi,
What version of IGO you are using? Where did you get 320x240 version? I have found modified data.gro, but still not perfect.
Usnig this build since RL2. Some remarks:
- overclocked with Rogue tools to 450 MHz -> runs smoother. But phone must be charged every day.
- cant understand the logic how calls end. Some times it ends exactly after caller disconnects. Sometimes no, disconnects after some time.
- WiFi on/off. My network has hidden SSID. WiFi turns on, but don't connects to network. I have to go Settings -> WiFi settings, and then phone connects to network
- GPS works, but sometimes looses satelites. Can be fixed with phone restart.
- Battery on RL3 stuck on 100%
Phone working, SMS working, battery life is ok for me.
Update:
with RLS5 looks like phone don't charges -> stuck on 15%

The last version : 139242 (look at PPCWAREZ). But like you, the data.gro is not perfect and I find IGO a bit slower and lose sometimes the GPS position ! I will try with the CM5.0.8.
- I doesn't use overclocking
- same effect for calls but i think it's better with this last build : I wait to do more tests
- Wifi works good !?! I see all networks... Maybe with the last kernel ??
- same for us, the battery life must be better : DZO know this problem

Hi,
What version of IGO you are using? Where did you get 320x240 version? I have found modified data.gro, but still not perfect.
Usnig this build since RL2. Some remarks:
- overclocked with Rogue tools to 450 MHz -> runs smoother. But phone must be charged every day.
- cant understand the logic how calls end. Some times it ends exactly after caller disconnects. Sometimes no, disconnects after some time.
- WiFi on/off. My network has hidden SSID. WiFi turns on, but don't connects to network. I have to go Settings -> WiFi settings, and then phone connects to network
- GPS works, but sometimes looses satelites. Can be fixed with phone restart.
- Battery on RL3 stuck on 100%
Phone working, SMS working, battery life is ok for me.
Update:
with RLS5 looks like phone don't charges -> stuck on 15%

You have to use root explorer or apk like this to replace the file...

Phone charged - left the phone charging over the night.
But when i connected charger, al least for 1/2 an hour, battery level stay at 15%. Maybe battery fallen below the critical level.
WiFi is working ok, when connected But when I turn it on, i have to go Settings -> WiFi settings. Otherwise nothing happens.
Update.
dzo released a new kernel, flashing right now

that's a classical eclair's build issue
Be patient, try some reboot and connect/deconnect your charger and after some charging/decharging cycle, battery accuracy will be better
slow..compare to incumbus, even after set cpu speed to 450
