I just put CM6 on my evo I wiped everything like usually. Everything is working great pulled all my apps from the market except two of them and when searching the market I can no longer find them. The apps are handcent sms and switch widget pro. Anyone have any clue what the issue is or if anyone else is experiencing the same issue?
Its an issue most froyo builds have had at one time..it will be fixed soon don't worry.
reading is tough.
Thanks MrDSL

Thanks for your useless comment but just to clarify I did read and searched around only thing I could find were old topics mostly specific to the N1 and had to do with build.prop and in one topic stated after FRF83 was released the issue was resolved. I wasn't aware it was still an issue with all froyo roms.
It does have to do with build.prop

Hello,
I have been trying out some GB roms lately and during the testing i saw that the compass was not showing north anymore.
If i turn the phone a little, the compass is swaying somewhere between NE and NW, but it never points north.
So i went back to FroYo roms, but now i have it there also.
I have been reading several messages fro different GB roms that people are having the same problem.
I also used the recommended radio's for the GB roms.
Since my AuraxTSense (FroYo) rom now also has this problem, it looks like a radio problem.
Can someone confirm this problem and tell me the solution or tell me the radio that is working?
Eric
Edit: See my post on page 2. There is a snq kernel fix for this problem.
Well, i have been testing some further.
Radios (old or new) make no difference.
Froyo rom (Aurax 8.4) and recalibrating the compass the old way, did make it work again.
Installing a new rom (GingerBread that is) and everything was wrong again. The radio version did not make any difference.
So i'm going back to Aurax and hope that i can recalibrate it again to let it work.
For other's with this problem:
Try the old way of calibrating the compass.
Make at least 2 figures 8, but do it slowly. It should take at least 2 seconds for every 8 you make.
Then turn the phone around 360 degrees along the length axe of the phone, also at least 2 times and 2 seconds per turn
Then turn 360 degrees along the sides axe (width), also at least 2 times and 2 seconds per turn.
If this did not work, repeat the last 2 ways of turning (length and width axe) but do it faster and about 6 to 8 times per direction.
This worked for me (and i hope it will work again in a few minutes).

Looks like North is up and South is down. The compass is now a "bubble" app.

I read a few days back that some Chinese Rom's had fixed it (HiAPK or something like that), but i just read that they also still have this problem.
So i will have to wait untill this is really fixed, because i need the compass for finding directions etc.
it seems to be a general gingerbread problem, other devices are affected too:

It is a general Ginger problem..we can nothing do about it but...waiting for fix
I opened a bug report on android's bug tracker, I encourage everyone who has this issue to confirm it so it will be fixed.

In the RCmix S thread there was somebody who had tried it.
In GB most of the files are not found.
The fix is for Froyo and not GB.
The guy (i think) reported that it did not work at all.
We will have to wait for some other solution.

Compass fixed with new kernel
Since yesterday there is a fix for the Compass problem in the GB rom's
It is a new kernel from snq and works for (at least) most GB rom's and probably all GB rom's.
I have not had time to try it, but in most rom threads there are people who have tried it and it works!!!!!
The fix can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1039004
If you want the flashable version, you can find it on the line with this text (on the previous page link):
download: zImage-v05 (flashable v04-to-v05 kernel image update package here)

Working on Nexus S
Hello,
is this fix working on Nexus S, too?
So, is this fix going to be incorporated into the official Acer releases (prob not)?
I guess we have to root and flash after market roms to fix their fubars...
I just rooted my evo, and I'm loving CM7. I do have some questions, tho. I keep reading about a sense gps fix and updating prl to work properly with CM7. My gps works just fine I've used it. What is a prl update anyway? Do I need to do these thins if my phone is already working properly? Any help would be appreciated.
If your gps works, leave it alone. The PRL is the roaming list so you can connect to a tower; you update it on a sense rom because you can't in AOSP.
What to look for...
I too, just recently rooted my Evo and am running CM7.
Running my speed test app, it's reporting slower speeds than before I rooted. Is that common or do I need to update/change something?
Plus, what should I look for to know when it's time to update the radio/wimax?
Update: Was looking at other threads, came across ManD5 which is supposed to help check md5. Am I on the right track?
Update #2: Found what I needed in another thread. Sorry to bug you all...took longer to find what I needed.

Well glad you found your info, and not bugging, but at least you actually looked, unlike a lot of people here. And that comment wasn't directed at either of you.

Yeah for real, same threads repeated by n00bs. I prefer to search first.
World peace with no regard for human life.
Well, Thanks for taking it easy on me.
Seen some of the other threads around here...it gets brutal sometimes.
It seems those working on this ROM don't like to keep people updated so I must fix this myself, but I need help. I'm on the latest cyanogen ROM and mms does not work. It will not send whether on wifi or regular. Does ANYONE have any suggestions of where to look to fix this. I'm not a newb by any means, I've just never ran into anything like this. So any help would be appreciated.
On a side note, not all new members on XDA have no clue so I find it rude and discriminatory to label them as such by not letting them post on the development page and other annoying issues.

This has been a well known issue with the CDMA ROM for several months now. Its by no means knew news. If you would have read the thread for more than 2 pages, you would have seen that. I'm working on a fix for the MMS issue, so we can have a flawless ROM.

I actually read about 50 pages worth and saw nothing. But atleast someone is working on it. I'm going to rip apart the stock ROM and see what I can find. I'm use to working on motorolas, but again, thank you.
I took the ROM from ruu 3.70.651.1 and ran the system.img and the boot.img through dsixda's kitchen and have been having fun building up my own ROM. Today I thought I would theme it a little but found that there is no systemUI.apk? Like I said everything works fine but with out that apk there are a lot of things I can't mod. Has anyone heard of something like this? I've been reading all evening with no luck. It seems to me with out that apk it shouldn't be working at all...
I know this is going to sound weird but I've been finding the icons normally in system/app/systemUI mixed in to the system/framework/framework-res.apk and the system/framework/com.htc.resources.apks. It's not really a problem I'm just wondering how this happened. I went through the process again this morning and came to the same results. Does anyone have any idea how or why this is happening? The one thing I can see as a problem is that if I want to add quick settings or recent apps it'll be more work since it appears the files will be spread out in strange places.
Ha. I was following this thread because I just got schooled on this exact same thing the other day ( see bottom of this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37698552 ) .
The funny thing is even if systemui.apk *is* there, framework can override it.
Who knows, maybe they did things different back in the days of froyo?
I was planning to return my attention to this topic myself someday, so I'll be curious if you find something useful. I would start by searching everything tommytomatoe ever wrote..

Hello.
I was wondering if anyone has a fix or an apk for stock messaging with split threads...the ones I've came across have a bug where you open the thread and it brings you some place in the middle of the thread instead of the bottom. It's really annoying. Any ideas? I'm on AOKP.
I think 4.2.2 has that scrolling bug.. I might have seen something about a 'scrolling cache' fix...
Ahhh. Ok. That makes sense cause I extracted a couple apks from different roms and it was the same on all of them. Darn. That's annoying
Yea, i've experienced it a bit with mms. I believe it happened somewhere else too, but i can't quite recall now. And i read the changelogs from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 and it was noted and supposedly fixed?! Anyway the rom i think i saw that had the fix might have been vanir.
EDIT: Scratch that, it's mmuzzy's rom with scrolling cache disabled. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096538
