I am trying to find any Froyo ROM with working Wifi location. Does anyone know of one?
Thanks!

I thought I read somewhere that Froyo doesn't support wifi location...I may be wrong, but I don't want to to break yourself searching for something that may not exist.
Hmm, I have not seen that anywhere, but I have also not seen it working in any Froyo ROM.
That is the one major annoyance that keeps me wanting to go back up to GB or HC.

Just wondering if there is a ROM that handles wifi better than the stock one. It amazes me just how bad it really is....Need to do something about it!
I guess I wasn't on the stock ROM long enough to notice any issues with wifi, but I guess Serendipity VII might manage your wifi signal better. I really haven't had any issues with my Infuse's wifi connection while using this ROM.

Other than possibly Gingerbread vs. Froyo - none. All Froyo kernels use the same BCM4330 driver, all Gingerbread kernels use another driver but it's the same for all GB kernels.
(Wifi support is primarily in the kernel.)
Thanks. Switched to infused 1.6 last night and it seems to be a little better so far.

get Infused v.2.1.0
its amazing....cant believe i didnt flash it sooner because my phone doesnt even hiccup anymore.
I actually found that Infused is pretty weak on connectivity both wifi and cell signal, I'm trying to find something better but I'm with the Rogers Infuse with GB. so there are only like 3 roms available to try from ( and I did..) any suggestions besides waiting for att Infuses to get the GB update?
Hi everyone, i'm glad to see we are on official gingerbread now.
I wanted to know if anyone will be working on a cwm package (or something) to make previous GB roms have the wifi strength of froyo?
-I want to emphasize that i'm not asking for an eta. More so if this is possible and something that I just need to wait to be released.
-I'm running icbinb ki3 tweaked exactly how i like it with battery how i like it. I'd rather not flash stock 2.3.6 unless that's the only way to improve my wifi. If I only have to wait for a package that will improve it on ki3, then id rather do that.
So thanks for reading, dont flame if you can help it.

The short answer from me is that I don't know. I wish I had more insight into what changed between Froyo & GB to cause the wifi to weaken. Could be as simple as drivers, could be that's how they're saving power, etc. I know flashing the KJ6 modem file caused people to have a big of an improvement with wifi though not the same level of performance with Froyo. I also read a lot of people had issues sending big SMS messages with KJ6, so that might be something to be wary about.
Anyway, you could flash the KJ6 modem file to see if it helps. As for something to get it back on par with Froyo, I'll have to leave that to the experts around here.

Yea i understand and get that to some degree. thanks for the reply.
Was wifi confirmed to be as strong as froyo on the stock gb?

It's not. It's stronger on Froyo.

To be honest, noone really knows exactly what the problem is.
But if you want to add the wifi properties of KJ6 to any ROM, which are way stronger than any previous GB build, you can refer to my thread in the development section. The mod I posted gives you the wifi of KJ6 without the modem. (Im currently using this mod with KI3 and my wifi is pretty darn good ATM ;p)
Look in dev section... possible fix posted earlier

So i have the ns4g and have tried multiple roms to see if i can get better signals/wifi signals and cant seem to really get anything better then the last. Also since this "official so called 4.0.4" rom has come out i was wondering if since this was an official build if the signals would be any better....please if someone could answer this or at least give me some advice i would greatly appreciate it!!!! thanks.

from what i have read it seems that there is a new radio with the new release so i think it MAY help with signal issues. try it out and see.
yeah ive been have the same problems!
I fresh the miui rom from raver's rom. But I found that there's some different from other rom's market. I can't find some apps in miui rom. and can't install them. What happen abouT that?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
I think it because of a code in the buildprop which lets the market app recognize your phone version, and software version...
have this problem after changing some codes in the buildprop
I didn't Change any code after fresh this rom

reguardless even tho the build prop identifys gingerbread.
Market still knows its MIUI
IF anyone here has ever used miui or cm on another device they know not everything shows up in stock shows up in cm7 or miui its a fact.

I believe that you misunderstood what he had said... Its not an issue with the rom, its an issue with MIUI and the market. I have had MIUI on previous phones and that is just something you have to deal with when using MIUI/CM. No matter who builds it, some apps will never show up.
@jigglynuts
Well I think it's a good idea looking into it since it's been happening for a time and it is an issue. Why is it? Thing is, this is not a thing to ask Raver... maybe would be better to talk with the MIUI people.
Look, if you make a backup using ti, then hypothetically, you can reinstall them, they may or may not work though. It depends on the app.

It is an issue with MIUI/CM. Seeing as MIUI people are the ones who developed it, I am sure they are fully aware. You can hop on any forum with MIUI and see related questions. I can assure you it has been looked into. I strongly doubt Raver is going to devote his time to fix an issue that has been around since MIUI/CM itself.
As far as the bluetooth and ringtones that is something that can/will/already are being looked into. I would not hold my breath about the market though.
Talking to Raver, I found out that it could also be the app developer that is blocking miui and cm from seeing those apps.

it has to do something in the buildprop that the market app reads.
my theory if you can fake the version.
my guess the app will be available.
Im changing and testing out the code in the buildprop but no success yet just a ton of bootloops and fc

i have had an HTC Desire for a good time and done a lot of flashing on it.
i never found an app on 90% of roms that was not available on stock rom
i have flashed MIUI XJ, MIUI AU, cm7 and other roms based on cm7 and stock as well and no probs
i aint a dev so i surely dont understand everything, but well maybe people on desire thread might help.
hi all,can someone answer me why sms delivery report not working on my device-android 4.0.but on 2.3.3 it wirk fine (sorry for my english)
doesn't work for anything that isn't Official based (2.2-2.3.3) anything CM based it doesn't work. I've tried little things to fix it or find an app to tell me if it fails, with no luck. Didn't search too much for apps that's your best bet though.
