The directions work better than Google's. Anyways, everything works great, until the screen times out. Basically, I had the phone on battery power, so the screen will time out after a few minutes. When it times out, the bluetooth turns off. so, when I hit the standby button to bring the screen back on, I have to manually start up bluetooth again. This only seems to happen when I'm using the GPS. It doesn't happen if I'm only using my headset. It does the same thing with Google Maps. TomTom works fine, because it doesn't let the phone go into a standby mode.
Has anyone else tried out this ROM with a bluetooth GPS while on battery and using live search?
This has been a big problem for me, too... Especially as the GPS program I use (mapopolis) has problems restoring the GPS connection from standby. When it shuts off bluetooth when it goes to standby, I have to exit mapopolis, power cycle my GPS, start bluetooth again, and launch mapopolis again. It has the option to keep the phone from turning off, which works great for driving, but for walking around when you just want to check it and turn it back off, it's quite a hassle.

It just seems odd that bluetooth turns off when connected to the GPS but not when I don't have anything connected... It's the same problem with the previous version(s) as well, it's not something new.
