You just know this sub forum is BURNING HOT right now when this thread has 79 views in 12 minutes LOL
Yup, 1 minute from downloading left. LOL, exciting stuff happening all over XDA today.
i really wish i wasn't so stubborn on waiting for camera and mms.
I am still waiting too.... but its ok, I am happy trying them out and seeing where we are at. I will be more than happy whenever it happens
2.1 uh oh
Tehe, thus far I've held off on the 2.1 builds because stuff hasn't been working, I guess since I'm backing up my device and switching ROM builds today anyway I'll have to just accidentally pop this on there and see what happens :-D
Edit: Was unable to get the Market to work at all. No FC message, just fails to start.
Doesnt have all market apps
Olive juice gbhil!!!
Just because I'm straight and don't feel like saying "I love you." I guess you could substitute "Alligator food" in there too.
Thanks for the hard work!

Can anyone confirm if the Verizon FIOS Mobile Remote app is or isn't available in the Market with this ROM?
Wow, this ROM FREAKING FLIES.
The pinch to zoom on the home screen is blazing fast. I am extremely impressed. 2.1 on our devices is going to be awesome. Thanks again for your hard work Gbhil!!!!
**Edit**
Location, like all other 2.1 ROMs I've tried though, is off. It initially said I was in Kansas City, which is right, but it quickly changed to "Washington" which is what the other roms said, which DEFINITELY isn't right
Could someone who has run both this one an flipz new release compare the two? I'd really like to know how they differ if they do at all. Thanks in advance

Oh trust me I know that reading is a good thing, I'm not that big of a n00b lol, but I just wanted some first hand experiences like how the ROMS feel, not necessarily what's in them
To add to my previous post, the location services are working fine, it just seems (like in other 2.1 roms) that the location noted in the HTC home screen clock is what isn't working properly.
I get the correct location returned in one of my test apps, and see myself fine in the Google maps v4, so I dunno...maybe there's something missing with the HTC Location Services apk?
Oh yeah, and SetCPU is awesome on this rom too
would i have to wipe this coming from fresh rom??
i had force close on "3g Update"?!?!
I just noticed: txt messages after daylight savings got a bit screwy for some people, where messages would be stamped an hour earlier and be out of order. Now Ive sent and recieved a few txts and they are showing the correct order and timestamps.
Anyone else?
Using Gumbo 2.1
I got the MLB At Bat 2011 app working for non supported devices since so many devices aren't supported that clearly can run it.
YOU MUST HAVE A MLB.TV SUBSCRIPTION TO GET THE GAMES!!
You also need to buy the At Bat 2011 app.
I have a nook color, but should work for any device.
I changed the build.prop to contain the fallowing:
ro.product.model=SCH-I800
ro.product.brand=verizon
ro.product.name=SCH-I800
ro.product.device=SCH-I800
ro.product.board=SCH-I800
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/SCH-I800/SCH-I800/SCH-I800:2.2/FROYO/EC02:user/release-keys
rebooted and worked. Should be able to chose any supported device and it will work. This is from the verizon galaxy tab.
I'm very much looking forward to trying this today.
Is there some sort of shortcut that could be made so we don't have to manually edit things every time?
EDIT: it's working! Though the supposed "HD" is far from it, and this is streaming over wi-fi.
I will be checking this out with today's free game of the day!
Now, I just need an easy way to switch the build.prop to watch the games.
the build.fingerprint isn't needed to be changed, works without it. Got it working on my nook color, pretty nice. Need to OC it and have a good fast connetion. Still not near HD though.
Good to know about the fingerprint.
Streaming is working great on my Captivate. Connected on wifi, close to HD after about 30 seconds, but if the connection gets bogged down, the picture loses quality fast.
Nice to have it working, clunky as it is...
I find I need a knead perfect 3G or strong wifi to get decent streaming on my droid2 and nook.

Will changing these settings have any unintended consequences for other apps or the operation of the phone in general? I have a Galaxy S but don't want to stuff anything up just for MLB At Bat.
nm, build.prop is a system file duh?
Congrats on getting this working, jkabaseball.
Are people getting the streaming working on CM7 Stable? I see that Nightly 37 was suggested before Stable came out. I'm on Stable now, and seeing the option, but only getting the white screen. I'm willing to try switching to 37, but it seems like there'd be no reason to do so, given that it's an older version. (Unless something was taken out before the stable release preventing this from working.)
Doesn't work on my nook with cm7. I even copied the signature.....yes I have sub also.
Cm7 installed on the Emmy
Sigh I had high hopes
I have been successful on cm7 stable on my HTC dhd. On a side note, anyone find a workaround to play blackout games?

Just wanted to follow up, and say a HUGE thanks for the info. I modified the build.prop file like you said, and now I can watch the Cardinals anywhere on my Samsung Mesmerize. Just a note it works great even though I am running Voodoo. The only thing that is different is my swype keyboard won't work anymore, says that it was not meant to be used for my device, oh well, I love Cardinals baseball more than swype so who cares!! Thanks again for the info!!

Other apps that require a specific build.prop might not work. I have a Captivate and the preinstalled Swype does not work while I an using the modified build.prop.
I duplicated my build.prop, renamed the duplicate build.prop.mlb and made the changes. Then when I want to watch baseball, I rename the real build.prop to build.prop.real and rename build.prop.mlb to build.prop and then reboot the phone. I switch it back when I'm done.

Enabling Mock Locations and an application that lets you spoof your location would probably work. Haven't tried it though.

Doesn't work on the Xoom either.
jkabaseball: youre awesome!!! Works like a dream on my Cappy!! Not quite in HD, but still so awesome. Now to figure out, like above posts mention, how to navigate around the locale so I can see my Giants games!!! I tried the app for changing locale, but i believe its a bit more involved than just fooling App Market. Thanks a ton jkabaseball

This might be too basic to ask, but - do you also have the paid app, rather than the free one? And is the sgs4g flash-capable? Those are also prereqs, in addition to the subscription.
The build.prop changes I posted is for the galaxy tab on Verizon. You should be able to use another device like droid2 build.prop and Skype should work as well. On my nook I thought the galaxy tab would be best.
Working on spoofing location. It mint be a little harder. MLB is pretty good at determining your location even through a VPN. I'm not sure if they are using gps location, which would be easy to spoof, or the network location where the stream is going to. I haven't got it to work on my pc yet, but will keep on working on android.
I searched through the Q&A about the S3 GPS, and I couldn't find a similar case to this. Hopefully it's out there.
My job involves a lot of driving, and I use my GPS for literally everything because most of the places are pretty far out there. I've used a Motorola Droid X and an HTC Incredible perfectly for this. The GPS would lock and maintain a signal, and get me there with no problem.
On my Verizon S3, I have an odd issue. It'll take much longer to lock in, and when it finally does, it seems to just freeze up after a few minutes. It'll be stuck on the same remaining time, the cursor will be on the same point in the road despite having passed it, and the distance to the next turn won't update. A little bit afterwards, it'll say signal lost and try searching for the GPS again.
I tried turning power saver off, checking the location services on and off, and yes, I turned it off and back on.
I thought it was an issue due to a preemptive rooting of my phone, so I came home early today and reinstalled the stock ROM. I tried the GPS again, and it had the same exact issue despite not being rooted this time.
Is there any fixes out there, or tutorials, or something that could be causing this? Thanks. Will click the thanks button the video beat over my head.
If it is doing it consistently take it back and do an exchange. I have sold two Galaxy S 3s on Sprint and was able to get a lock in a building pretty quick. I have the Galaxy S 2 and my first one had similar GPS issues. I just did a warrenty replacement for it not charging and GPS on this new Galaxy S 2 is great.

Alright, that makes enough sense. I'll try doing that.
Could there be anything else wrong before having to do that? Worried they'll just sell out super fast.
Samsung galaxy phones have been know for GPS issues. Sounds like you got a bad one. You will make yourself go nuts trying to find fixes for it, like I did. Get another one and see what happens, even if it is a pain to get another one.

Alright, I appreciate the quick help. My dad is currently remaining vigilant in his demand to go through tech support first, so he's working on that. If that fails, I'll definitely try getting another Galaxy. Hopefully I can actually find one.
Maybe they WILL fix it, who knows! Probably not, though.
Question is still open if anyone has any ideas.

Oh christ. Dad just finished with the tech support. They literally just told him to check the location settings to see if everything was checked(which it was when the problem was occurring). Even took it for another test drive and the same problem.
This really does suck sort of, I love the phone but GPS is essential. I hope I can just replace it.
If they give you a hard time return it and go somewhere else to buy it. You have 14 days to return it without breaking contract. Go into the store and see how their display model works.

Back on my Incredible for a few days, just returned it. I hope the new model works. I miss it already. :<
Good luck
I'm having the same issue as OP. So i'm gathering that it just might be my specific phone and not that they're all having this problem?
I'm liking the phone for the most part, but the GPS issue is a pain when I use it multiple times a day.

I had similar problem and just went to Verizon store today for it. The "technical specialist" had ZERO clue. He didn't even know where the location settings are. Anyway, after I showed him the problem in the store he ordered a replacement for me. Didn't even challenge me about trying to use it indoor, or having the WiFi turned off etc. I also tried the demo units they had in store and they all locked instantaneously.
It was pretty easy and I'm glad it's over. I've spent hours trying to figure out whether I'm crazy or the phone is crazy.
Good luck.
You guys who are having the lock ups, are you using VZNavigator or Google Nav?
I exclusively use GNav and I have the Verizon navigation services UNCHECKED and I have had zero issues with getting locks and with navigation.

Google Map/Nav here. Never used VZW one. why on earth would anybody use VZW Nav? I did try both check/uncheck the VZW service.
In my case I'm sure it's not a user error. I spent hours trying all kinds of things, all possible combination of settings and different locations.

I'm inside now so I can't test it, but i have VZNAV App disabled, I'm wondering if that may be affecting GPS lock. I'm sure my GPS was working fine a week ago, and thats the only thing I did recently that could have affected it. Someone please test enabling/disabling VZNav App and let me know if theres any differences.

At one point of my testing I turned on VZW location service in location setting and it locked immediately. I was out in the open. I then tried toggling it multiple time, before and after rebooting the phone. It never helped again. I'm guessing in a normal situation it could help locking but it does fix my defective GPS.

I've never open VZNav app. When I first got my phone I disabled the VZNav app. After I noticed the GPS problem I went back to 100% stock and did a factory reset. Did not disable VZNav and didn't even install any app. I still had the same GPS problem. So I guess in my case I did disable/enable the VZNav app and it didn't seem to be the cause.

Oh well if the GPS doesn't improve later, i'll stop by VZW on my way home and see if i can get an exchange.
If you are having issues with Titanium Backup while you are restoring (if it stays at 0%), then try this.
Possible Solution to T.B:
1) Go to settings > General > About Phone > Software info
2) Press build number 7 times
3) Go to Go to settings > General > Developer options
4) ACTIVATE USB DEBUGGING MODE!
5) That's it. It shouldn't get stuck at 0% anymore
Hope it helps :good:
If this doesn't work, use the method found in Post #11 thanks to @buzzboy for finding it!

Same here, not working. I tried also the "Auto Indirect" mode in PREFERENCES / APP PROCESSING MODE of TB Pro. I did a new install of SuperSU. I did a full clean install of the system. Nothing works. I cannot restore my Apps anymore. The only way to restore the backup is to use the INTERACTIVE MODE, which doesn't allow batch processing but it works as workaround.

I've literally been pulling my hair out over the last 24hrs over this!
Flashed different ROMs, Restored my device to factory state, with no luck.
I've found a temporary fix for myself.
1)Settings--Google--Security and turn off verify apps.
2)Turn off verify apps over USB in developer settings.
3)Restore using Titanium.
4)Turn security settings back on.
It Seems google has beefed up their secuirity.
The Guys on the substratum theme thread are having a similar issue.

It seems to work on my Pixel, obviously each device has different settings.
Then i will change this to possible solution instead of just solution lol. Sorry guys. My solution still working for me though... Im using weta 4.7.3 rom. I cant confirm nor deny that google did something to alter the functionality since i didnt try to go back to a version of weta where TB worked fine. (and there is no way i will do that now lol. I still feel the pain of loosing all my data for good)

I was so pi$$$$$ed yesterday!! It just so happened that I was flashing a new ROM to my device yesterday (which I do waaaay too much, I think I have a problem lol) and suddenly wasn't able to restore anything through TiBU. I spent the better part of last night trying various things, all the while thinking that my device was seriously messed up this time!! Heh. I was kind of stressed. Just a tad. And I think I owe my wife some flowers after work today because she wasn't very happy with me for being on my phone all night, yelling and screaming and cussing... you get the idea I'm sure.
Anyway, this works in case anyone else needs confirmation. And for the record, I don't think this is an issue with TiBU because I even tried earlier builds. I agree with the others that it seems to have something to do with something Google implemented... Not very happy and seriously hope it's just a big oops that gets resolved soon. Either that, or TiBU gets updated to work-around the new security measures!

like bypassing the smart lock or prevent the google locked phone? if so just go to accounts on settings and go to google and then remove the account from the device. After that you can flash without remorse. :silly: . Although you can also flash with the google locked phone and still been able to bypass it.
So... Nova has it enabled, I can train my voice, made sure all the correct settings are there for the Google App and nothing. Doesn't work while the phones screen is off or unlocked and the screens on. It only works with the Google App open.
Well never mind.. not sure WTH happened but while I was testing the feature on my S9+ somehow the Razer decided to work. Not sure what the deal was.
