Guest erikcas Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 I managed to get connected to AGPS within seconds but coarse GPS it takes, somewhere in between one hour and one hour and a half, to connect. It's annoying. I bought licence for SYGIC(offline navigator with offline maps) but I can't use it because it takes so long to connect to GPS. I tried GPS fix app, but doesn't fix the problem. My simcard doesn't have a data plan. I have a old Sonny Ericsson Xperia X1 and it connects to GPS in less than 2 min. No offense, I wonder why you buy a license for an app if you want to run it on a winmo phone with a beta android on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bf5 Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 No offense, I wonder why you buy a license for an app if you want to run it on a winmo phone with a beta android on it? The app is for android.I bought it because I saw the speed of development is so good. But in the end if it's not gone work I'll probably buy a native android phone. I tried it on xperia x1 which has android froyo from xda forum. It's funny on xperia x1 I have even honey comb v2 and works great except the battery life it's much shorter than omnia 2 i8000 and the screen smaller.

Guest HJHJHJHHHHHH Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Deal all, After reading all the pose here, i still have no idea how to start install Froyo 3 to my Omnia II. Would you please help me on the following question? 1. Do we still need to do partition first? 2. Where can we find the software for partition? the one on the website 1024.zip is not working Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Trasheador Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I have the clock problem too. In clock app, sometimes the time is right and in the status bar is shown different. Is the time for the clock app stored in a different place than the status bar clock time? Also, i have the battery draining problems and i believe they may be due to the google+ app, that runs a service to sync. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Job21 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) about the builb.prop editing, just found another reference online http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1151608 try at ur own risk UPDATE: my own taste windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=35 <= change to 55 and already see significant improvement on responsiveness ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 <= this also get u smoother launcher mot.proximity.delay=xx <= tried 100 and feels good UPDATE2: now start playing around the LCD density, but instead of lowering the value as recommended widely online, shouldn't matching with your screen resolution (~ 252 dpi?) that gives best effect?

Go to Sygic settings, turn off GPS, turn on. But for fix You have to wait like on WM (it worked very fast on beta 2).

I think this is related to drivers... Anyways i'll wait till the froyo project ends because rather a fully working Android than an unstable one...

Yes you are right with beta 2 . I remember it worked really fast. The only downside of beta too was very unreliable phone signal, otherwise great. I tried the trick with on and off gps in settings of Sygic but no improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest vidavi Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I confirm that letting my omnia go to autosleep my battery lasts longer. I tested it last night and it go down by only 10% for 10 hours. It usually went about 40%-50% down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Job21 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) everyone who might know:replacing /sd with /sd from froyo beta2 that will change the phone part? I'm trying on JB2 (not only phone part, but also the modem.bin file should be changed) UPDATE copying seems doesn't work but / replacing file is OK (e.g. renaming phone...JB2.bin => .... JJ1.bin) Bt lib seems linking w/ phone part,so changing to jb2 costs me the bt connection PS 1 finding during trial of JB2 pushing, at initial lock screen, the time is same as on the alert bar (both ahead 8hrs, then behind 8hrs, but at least they sync) unlike in JJ1, alert bar is -8 hrs while lock screen is +8 hrs Edited November 22, 2011 by Job21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's copied from samdroid and it's not a problem to run it (actually You can do it very easily). BUT do You want stable one or the newest but not fully working? Last but not least: You can test/make it Yourself and it will be Your contribution to the community. That would be dpram.ko in / modules?guess it's not enough replacing these files Just look at beta2 to beta3 update and You will know differences. Additionally You won't have IMEI and will probably have problems with neighbouring cells for GSM. Edited November 22, 2011 by voyteckst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest antonio junior Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) Voyteckst, could launch the updates that way? if possible. launch "Terminal Emulator" (that's in devtools); su cd /sdcard sh frbupdate.sh coming does not work by putting the files on internal memory and haret.exe. And so it is not complicated and works without problem. equal to the post of this pag. http://windows.modac...10/page__st__20 Edited November 22, 2011 by antonio junior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
