i have to say, with the GPS fix done by flashing the sense rom and completing the code, deck's v1.1 has been providing instantaneous GPS locks and great performance.

the issue i kept coming across last night was, if i was using the gingerbread music player, GPS signal would degrade or drop completely. i would have to turn off the music completely before i could obtain any GPS locks that would stay steady.

attempted this with v1.2c, using the included music player, and pandora. still an issue. maybe that is why the cyanogen team stated that HTC had funky GPS coding for the EVO.

Now we are using opensource code that is based on Qualcomm reference designs which is pretty close to correct but sometimes the hardware just fails certain calls for no apparent reason (and sometimes they work just fine). This is a blocker bug for 7.0 final, so it'll get resolved.

Which widgets do you use for testing and monitoring?

I am new in gingerbread and I want to know why sometimes the 3G symbol and the bars are white and later changes to green, what is the white meaning?

When it is green it is communicating with Google's servers

Been wondering that myself. Not sure how much info you have on this, but if possible could you elaborate any? When you say communicating, what is it communicating. Is this a touching base thing or sending/receiving info?

No problem, I found this info on another site. First, the wi-fi/3g indicator on your phone will switch between green and grey. Green indicates that you have an uninhibited connection with google, which means that you can connect to the market, gmail, and all other things google. If you've ever tried to get on the market and it wouldn't connect and you would have to stop and try again in a minute that's because you didn't have that 'uninhibited' connection. While the indicator is grey you can still connect to the internet.

Hope that helps!

ok thanks to the cm team, we will have another update pushed a bit later today. they seem to have tackled the 4g reboot issue. my old fix wasnt working anymore. so thats good news. also ALOT of other things to the framework for stabilty, wakelock, and a whole buunch of others fixes. this one should be pretty nice btw, i have over 21 hours battery life with 44% remaining on 1.2c with stock kernel, moderate - heavy use. battery life seeems to be making its way back into 2.3.4!

Nice! Can't wait for 1.2d then! [or whatever it may be called]

I had issues with the GPS on 1.2c where it wouldnt turn off after use. 1.2b works fine so I went back to that rom.

Deck, do you know if USB Tether has been implemented yet?
