You might try downloading this and replacing this file in SYSTEM--ETC

Are we talking about Navigation or Maps?Maps works fine. Navigation takes forever.

GPS uses a combination of Internet access and satellite responses to establish a lock. If either option is less than optimal (as in rural area, or lack of cellular strength), you may not be able to establish a GPS lock. There are many apps that go through these "pre-lock" scans and create a cache file. I believe there's one called GPS Status & Toolbox in the Play store. Your phone must be rooted and has Busybox for this app. What it does is scan NTP time servers, determine GPS coordinates, then write back a cache file for your other navigational apps. From then on, it takes a second to lock your GPS. Try that!

Awesome. I'll try this. I was wondering if just clearing the cache after replacing the gps.conf to this file might help.

I m experiencing something odd in this rom, the first day I installed it the battery life was great, after the first cycle the battery is garbage, its consuming 2% a hour. So my question is why am I getting worse battery life as the room settles more?

You probably couldn't pull any cell signal. When you get that message, pull down the notification bar and likely it said 'No service'. Not uncommon, keep hitting OK at the error prompt, and proceed with initial set-up. After a reboot, the error will go away.

in the XDA thread on the Google Now to ICS port, this has been discussed a lot and no solution has been found.

there are some Apps that worked to do this, but none work on ICS. Google really borked BT in ICS. there have been bug fix requests to Google, but they won't acknowledge the issue or give any indication that any fix is being worked on.


I agree the new search is a piece of junk. The old one worked great...now I have two issues, one of which I fixed on a different ROM but can't on this one for some reason
1. BlueTooth search - i was able to disable Voice Search and then BlueTooth started using VoiceCommands instead which is much better. I am not able to go to Manage Apps and "disable" voice search on this ROM like I was on another ROM....maybe I'm doing it wrong?
2. Second issue is that the new search on the Google bar sucks and i want the one on ICS stock. I don't understand how this is an issue when it is on the Stock .21X, where did this new one come from?
EDIT on #2...on this ROM when I clicked the mic on the search bar on the background it asked which app i wanted to use so I'm set now on that one.

thanks

I really do hope they remove the soft menu buttons and integrate the hard buttons. Arctic HD has that song when turning on the start which is defining. LOL. Good job guys!

You are complaining about 2% per hour? I lose 2% in 10 minutes. I would love 2% per hour.

Everyone uses their phone in many different ways, I used it at work only in my breaks and i dont use it a lot at home, so i consider myself a moderate user, I used to be in the latest FLICK ROM and it would usually last me 2 days with 2 or soemtimes 3 hours of screen time, i love this ROM, is great , i would like to find out if my crappy battery life is because of the ROM or my device.

I'd give it a few days, then make your decision.

All ROMs based on .211-.225 should have no data issue.

I'm loving this ROM! Stellar performance.

I've tried to update the Gmail client but it won't permit updating and suggests I uninstall and re-install Gmail. That would be fine, but I can't seem to uninstall it either (no uninstall button). Has anyone else been able to update Gmail? Any advice?

Thanks!
