[ROM] [froyo] Swedish Spring RLS5 [2011-04-19] [OLED+TFT] [Gen1][Gen2]

[Guest cedge]

When I first flashed this ROM RLS5, with a full wipe etc. the GPS locked pretty quick but the last couple of days it has taken ages to obtain a lock. I have tried Fasterfix setting UK as the server and a restart but it still seems to take a while. I was contemplating the wbaw fix but it seems to get a lot of reports that it makes no difference/gets worse so is anyone else having trouble with GPS and is there anythng else I can do before I even consider changing to a different ROM?

[Guest Anil k Solanki]

Hi just installed this. So far I'm impressed - due to exams I couldn't be arsed sorting out the dreadful first release CM7 lol

Hi oliverjh, Swedish Spring is great and good luck in your exams. As for your comment on CM7 being a "dreadful" first release, I find that statement wholly ungrateful. The devs at Cyanogen are doing a sterling job for free, so if it wasn't for folks like that we wouldn't have Swedish Spring.

I have been a Mac dev for over 15 years, and I have to say this forum, this community, is truly remarkable. I have rarely come across a community so active and helpful to each other.

Just my opinion.

See my post Post #2391 ... a reinstall sorted mine ! NO wipe, or loss of anything.

Cant connect to wireless on a GEn1 blade.

Cant connect to wireless on a GEn1 blade.

I can connect to wireless on a Gen 1 Blade, using two types of Wi-Fi hardware. I sleep my phone, wake it up and it connects immediately to either of my two Wi-Fi networks.

Hi, sorry for the sarcastic post, the point I was making (badly), was that the ROM works great on Wi-Fi, so your issue lies somewhere else.

All this is now moot, but perhaps you could share what your original problem was and how you fixed it? May help out other folks with a similar issue.

Have been using SS5 for some time now, and everything (batterly life, speed, gps, wifi) is vanilla except for one issue that I'm having and obviously wanna get rid of:

when going online via 3G, the only thing that works is the browser - youtube app, market, skype are all nogo. Everything works great with wifi, so I really wonder if it's the rom, the provider or whatnot. My brother has another SS5ed Blade and his market works with 3G, so what could be the problem here? Any ideas how to get full internet access via 3G?

Thanks in advance for any hints

Do you have any firewall app, or advert blocker, or anything which tweaks internet?

[Guest Anil k Solanki]

Hi DrDo,

I assume you are using RLS5, and your using the same telecom provider your brother is? If possible can you try his SIM in your handset and see if the problem persists. If it does do a nandroid back up then re-flash Swedish Spring, no need to wipe anything if you are re-flashing the same ROM.

I am no expert but that is what I would try, and in that order.

I hope this helps.

Anil.

Thx for the suggestions, that was quick!

Found the culprit now: it was the APN, which was set to a WAP access point, switched that to WEB and voila everything works as it should...

Bug, [please confirm]:

Using SS RLS5.

When playing videos usually low resolution ones, horizontal and vertical grid lines appear on the image as a lightening of the image.

Youtube shows this but not with high res videos as much as low res ones.

Changing the video resolution changes the position and density of the lines.

Also problem shows on Go Weather as vertical stripes on the anim's.

Suspect it is an error in the upscaler config which causes this.

My phone is a TFT model.

Hi, I normally use videos encoded for the Blade's specs (MP4) and have no problems. Can you give some more specs of the videos, CODEC resolution etc.

Anil.

[Guest k0zmic]

Have you enabled stagefright? It might help.

[Guest Tom_D]

I was wondering if anyone could please help me. When I get a text message, the screen doesn't turn off on its own and it will stay on till the text message is read. This is a bit of a battery drain, how can I fix it?

Many thanks

[Guest ThermalDroid]

Is there anyway you could add the copy and paste function into this?

From Gingerbread? Highly doubtful.

Anil,

I was using youtube, not sure if codec is the important thing here. I know it messes up on Go Weather's full-screen anims.

I will try and make some test videos then if I place them on a web-server we can have a common base. I think the lines are dependant on the video resolution.

Thanks,

Me me me. I only really noticed recently but has probably been a problem since I upgraded to Swedish Spring. Seemed to work alright in Japanese Jellyfish?

The GPS tracking barely connects no matter how good visibility of the sky I'm getting. Might have to find a "GPS fix" add-on randomly somewhere and install it.

If anyone else has a solution I'd very much appreciate a link! (reinstalling with a wipe didn't fix anything.)

Hi could you post a link to the YouTube videos you had issues with? That would be very helpful.

Hi Folks

I'm installing a ROM on my gen1 blade for the first time. I've got clockwork 4.0.0.2 installed fine and installing SS RLS5 seems to go well, but then I reboot, and after the green robot it goes to the android screen while it installs stuff in the back ground, it just stops there. It never finishes whatever its doing. Not seeing any search results on the modaco forums either :/

Hope i've not bricked it!

Help is mucho appreciated!

Managed to fix it myself. I was fiddling about, wiped the user data and then it installed fine.

[Guest pxpto]

Hi, I did a full wipe, installed SS RLS5 and everything works.. except browser downloads! Whenever I click a file (link) in the browser the download manager appears and shows "<no name> Download unsuccessful"..

Same thing with RLS4b.. Market works fine.. Have enough space on the sdcard.. Have a Gen2.. Didn't installed anything after install..

JJ9 doesn't have this problem..

Any ideas?
