Simple Guide 2012 Android on SD card! FLASH 11, 4 Steps, TP2 DL lnks (FRX07.1)

[Sc/ant864]

This going to be somewhat off-topic but I thought it was important to share. I figured out why I couldn't delete or format my old SD card. Apparently I had to go into the properties of the card and allow sharing permissions full access...why this isn't default I have no idea but that was the culprit. Also it seems all new Sandisk sdhc cards come formatted to fat32.

I went thru the last page to figure out if you were responding to another post, since by itself this post makes no sense.

Well, it still makes no sense after reading thru the last page. So what's your question/problem/issue?

I just installed FRX07.1 a couple days ago. Forgive me if this has already been answered (I've searched this thread and have come up blank):

When I make phone calls, the sound by default is routed to the back speakerphone and is noisy. If once the call has begun, I tap the speaker button that appears in the lower right corner of the Phone app twice, sound is then properly routed to the front and it is clean without noise. Is there a way to route sound for phone calls to the front by default?

Unfortunately no. The new acoustic routing code fixes this problem, but introduces others (although the list of new problems is getting very, very low...)

Thanks arrrrghhh.

Two other issues:

GPS does not appear to be working. I open Google Maps and the status bar GPS icon flashes. However, I give it ample time, but it never locks to satellites. I just get a "waiting for location" message forever. Google Maps in WM usually locks within 30 seconds of the program launch.

The other issue is very poor battery life, even in standby without apps running. I have shut off push mail and my settings more or less match what I had in WM. Any FAQ or tweaks available to improve this? Battery life currently seems to be too poor (just a few hours) to be usable as my phone OS when I'm on-the-go. As is, it's only practical for days I'm at home or at office, where I can have the TP2 constantly connected to the charger. (Edit: I found this thread, http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/android-tp...ng-thread.html, and will try some of the tips to improve battery life)

I realize this is a work-in-progress. I'm very grateful to the devs. I hope the kinks are worked out...it could be amazing. What an immense improvement in usability over WM6x!

Does it work for you in WinMo? I had the same problem, and apparently it never worked, even in WinMo

GPS works fine for me through the Navigation app.

As I said in my original post, "Google Maps in WM usually locks within 30 seconds of the program launch."
