Is the any chance that the all in one package could be updated? For some reason I can not get the new rootfs to work with the current all-in-one package. I am running a Raph800 (Bell Canada) and for some reason when ever I copy in the new rootfs, my phone freezes on the lock screen after startup. I can easily fix the problem by re-copying in the old rootfs, but I really would like gps working. Mak if you have time and could post the your current working andboot that would be great.

Thanks for all of your hard work!

The new rootfs is working great for me; including a fully functional GPS!

However, I noticed that Street View isn't working. When you try to use Street View it says: "no application found to handle google.streetview"

Is there something extra that needs to be done to get Street view?

I agree!

Wow, GPS CDMA! I'm booting up now with latest Kernel and RootFS!

Should I be deleting my data.img after the new RootFS? GPS doesn't seem to be finding anything so far.

* EDIT *

Nevermind, GPS working! Just took a minute before it found any, then it found five right away.

I wanted to post some feedback after playing with GPS for a while.

1. GPS works very well. Was able to get lock with accuracy of 5 feet or so according to GPS Test.

2. I experienced no problems with the phone not sleeping with and without GPS.

3. Google Maps (Latest version) Navigation tells me unable to find route any time I try to use it. Latitude and Maps work great though.

Bechard,
I was curious to what system, modules files you are using? I am using the latest All-in-one package and just replacing the rootfs and it hangs on the lock screen. Any info would be helpful. I am pretty sure your Telus phone and my Bell phone are almost identical. If some one could post a working all in one package with GPS that would be great!
Thanks in advance.

Makk should post an update soon. Patience, this was JUST released. If you can't patch the system yourself, please exercise patience.

This is nice. Android actually WORKS on the Verizon TP. It obviously has a lot of "not quite finished" bugs in it, but other than that the first time I have been able to browse the web on it. :D

Now, there is an issue with the Market. When I try to download Market apps, it errors out with a message of insufficient storage memory to install. There is 1.8 GB available in Storage Card and 250 MB available in Application Memory... is there something I'm missing, or is this a feature that has to be updated?
