Guest Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Hi all, I've cooked a rom with the geniewidget but the weather cannot be loaded. it tells me "weather not yet available" (<= this is translated from french) or "No location". By the way, the HTC weather app works fine. anyone has an idea? Had the same issue. I went into weather settings and unchecked "use my location". then i chose set location. finally i checked "use my location" again and it worked. im not sure if it will update my location though
Guest CyrilleM Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 It doesn't works for me either with last rom and last radio. No network location. Problem is since r5. For those having the Netlocation bug, just do a total wipe and format ext partition if exists. Resetting completly the phone solve the problem I have had.
Guest DomP Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Ok my mistake apologies DomP :angry: Yep, sorry, I should have posted a full sentence. I didn't have the energy. :-) I'm not usually one to flame people for that kind of thing, but this is starting to get ridiculous. I'll be upgrading my account soon anyway, because Paul works harder than the money it cost me for ad free!
Guest pfsykes Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Ok Hope someone can help Im using MCR 3.1 However I have not upgraded to this release yet. Can some one tell me the process of moving from 3.1 to this release. The main issue I have is relating to the radio. Question. How do I backup my existing radio How do I Install a new radio Will The new radio not work with MCR 3.1 If i have an issue with this release and go back to MCR 3.1 what do i need to restore Do I need to do a full wipe including apps2sd+ I know this sounds like a noob thing but i cant find any posts about it Many Thanks Peter
Guest Paulo Nobrega Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Hi all... Just regarding again sms Leds... maybe someone found a solution or has any idea... Since R4 release, i was using Handcent, and stoped having the LED (was using blue, but tried any colors) notification for sms... When i flashed the R5 i still didnt get the LED working..

I know it's kind boring read so many posts, still.. Let me try resume what i know: - U can bake this new release and it will include de new radio.. U dont need to backup any radio. - before u flash u should do a nandroid backup throught the recovery so u can restore everything if u need to - if u wanna use a2sd+ u will need to partition ur SD card. I recomend using ROM MAnager for it. Backup ur SD before to ur pc... Then use Titanium Backup to backup all ur apps and data. Flash the ROM, do a wipe and clean cache, and then restore the apps with titanium backup... It's really easier than it looks... If u backup with nandroid, and titanium backup, and then backup ur SD card to the PC u wont lose anything for sure... LOL
Guest EddyOS Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Just a quick bit of feedback for you, Paul... Running latest r5 refresh and have no issues whatsoever! Everything working as expected, all aspects of the phone are bob on - can't fault it! Battery life is good (taken off charge 7am, back on charge 11pm with 50% left) and it runs extremely smooth. Look forward to coming improvements. :angry:

Guest DomP Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Same problem here! The problem was Handcent, they have already released a new version in the market to fix it.
Guest Paulo Nobrega Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 The problem was Handcent, they have already released a new version in the market to fix it. but even with latest version i dont see the led... chompSMS has the same option, but no LED either..
Guest scotch whisky Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 No issues that I have noticed. Current version is ready for prime time as far as I am concerned.
Guest Han-Droid Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 (edited) feedback here: came from r4 without wipe. I experience strange lags. sometimes when i quit an app and see one of the 5 homescreen the phone sort of "soft reboots" (white screen with htc) causing everything to slow down just like when u first boot into the day an realize that everything is "loading"...favourites, news-feeds etc. my rough guess is: that's what you get when u don't wipe! :angry: Edited July 21, 2010 by Han-Droid
Guest Paulo Nobrega Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 but even with latest version i dont see the led... chompSMS has the same option, but no LED either.. i read here in other thread that current Froyo ROMs are not supported the LED notification... Can anyone confirm that has LED notifications (Blue, red, etc) working with current R5 Rom??
Guest wontcachme Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Before i upgrade from my mcr3.1 there was one thing i like to know. Is the HTC Music Player included in this sense version? Ik don't like the Froyo one.
Guest Nephisto Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 i read here in other thread that current Froyo ROMs are not supported the LED notification...

Guest klutsh Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Their is a error with any colour LED than Orange or Green. If you run DDMS/Logcat you will see error's when the LED state is written to.

Guest maati Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Has nobody noticed that the cantacts can't be sorted by last name anymore? Doesn't this annoy you?
