On my device, with my usage, this ROM is by far THE BEST ROM I've ever put on my TP. But I'm having one issuse that I need a fix for, when opening picture attachments through e-mail or when trying to view a picture in Palringo (for example), it will only open the "pictures and videos" file browser and it won't open the actual photo I'm trying to view. I hope there's some kind of fix for this because this is a killer for me. Can anyone replicate what I'm talking about and maybe have some input on a fix? TIA!

i had a wierd thing happen to me yesterday. My battery was running low and all of a sudden the phone restarted. Came up like i had done a hard reset (had to reset the screen, pick time zone, bla bla). However my contacts remained as well as some icons in the start menu that i added. I did however have to reinstall any programs i had previously put on the phone.

edit.. actually now that i think about it i was trying to close something in the task manager. I hit an X and the screen froze and restarted.

I like this rom but has anyone been able to use my location in google maps(without gps and wifi on)? I've tried reflashing and changing radios to no avail.

everythings working great, but the calendar icon remains on the htc 6.5 lock screen even when there isnt an upcoming event.

is there a way to disable the skin to troubleshoot?

That issue has been a constant theme among all versions of THIS ROM. See my post here from early last month. It's strange not to have this feature, since pretty much every ROM I have used on here has it. Lately, I cannot even get a GPS lock with this ROM...

I haven't updated to this version of NFSFAN's rom, but on most of his I had to install QuickGPS to get the GPS to lock. Have you done that yet? If not, there is a cab attached to the thread. Once I installed it, I get a lock in a few seconds.

edit: Wow, my reading comprehension FTL. Realized my response doesn't have anything to do with what you were asking. I guess thats what happens when you spend days mired in actionscript.

Google maps and weather works fine without GPS or wifi for "my location" on my TP. The issue may be with EvDo or rA vs. 1x. Try setting your mode to 1x and see if that allows "my location" to work without GPS or wifi. I can get "my location" to say "your location within 3500 meters", I am in an area where towers are spread thin.

I have no problems with any GPS locating software using GPS. I constantly see 8 - 11 sats. 3D positioning is no issue at all, even indoors. I use the VZW 1.03.09 radio and get the best all around performance. I have added the QuickGPS cab also for quicker locks, usually 30-60 seconds.

Anyone else having issues with the daylight savings switch? I keep moving the time ahead an hour manually but it reverts back somehow...
