Unable to get NDrive to work properly on FroYo

Hey everyone,
I've been a lurker for a little while now but I finally decided to ask you guys for some help regarding NDrive on my HTC Desire after trying all I could think of to fix the issue.
Going straight to the topic: I've had problems with NDrive since I updated to 2.2 (either Sense or plain FroYo). What happens is that when I run NDrive 9 on my desire it quickly finds the satellites with very good signal and displays speed, altitude, coords, etc but it fails to get a fix, always says "Status: No Fix!". The strange thing is, all of the times I started up NDrive it was able to get "Status: Fix 3D" twice and it worked flawlessly until I exited the app and started it up again. Also, any other application that uses the GPS works, photo GeoTagging, Compass, and even google maps navigation. (I would use Google Nav but I don't have a 3G plan)
Here's what I tried... Going back to rooted 2.1 (worked instantly), different 2.2 roms, format and install rom and immediately install ndrive right after flashing and updating Radio.
I'm also asking this to know if it's just me or anyone else has this issue. I've tried looking around the web for something related but no avail.
Also, if it matters, the roms I tried was LeeDrOiD, OpenDesire, DeFroST (which I currently use), and one or two more that I cannot remember...
Baseband: 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14
Current ROM: DeFroST 5.7
HBoot: 0.80
Thanks.
Cheers.

[Q] Can't get wifi to connect

I have flashed to CMod 7 nightly 8 yesterday, to try out Gingerbread, and after several glitches at the start (apparently I had to restart once to get the wifi to work at all), I managed to activate the phone, and started downloading all my apps (thanks for app-brain that kept all my apps listed and ready).
At around noon yesterday, my wifi got disconnected, and it can't seem to get connected again - it just stays stuck on "Obtaining IP Address..." for a long while, before finally giving up and listing my network as "Disabled".
At first, I thought it was something wrong with the wifi in my office, but the same thing happened to me at home in the evening, and keeps on happening to me here now.
I reverted back to factory setting (deleting all my hard-installed apps), hoping it will work again, but no luck. Still can't get connected to the network. Just now I also removed the wireless security of my network completely, and it is still not working.
I switched radios between
2010-12-21 - Radio_12.35a.60.140f_26.04.03.30_M
2011-01-04 - Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF (currently on the DHD)
2011-02-25 - Radio_12.28g.60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3
and there was no difference.
I am now thinking maybe I should do a rom manager restore, to see how it works on the old (stock) rom.
Any tips from anyone here?

It's a bug in the rom. Use rc1 that works fine.

Have you updated BusyBox? I recently updated to 1.18.3 and it broke root & WiFi.

Yeah, coming to think of it, I did install busybox just before the trouble started.
Now I am back on stock rom. I must admit that I find the look and feel of the Sense UI much more pleasing than the Cyanogen's... But maybe it's just a question of getting used to it.

Ginger Villain and WiFi

I have been on Ginger Villain 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 and i have had this problem.
When the wifi is connected, i would say once every five minutes it disconects and re-connects again. Even though this process takes a few seconds, it is very annoying when im on skype as it terminates the call.
I have set the wifi sleep policy to never. I have never had this problem on stock, modaco, and Robo HD roms.
One thing to note, i originally thought this was a gingerbread 2.3 problem. Too see if was true, i flashed the new modaco 2.3 rom and it was fine. I was using skype and other apps for over an hour and it did not disconnect.
So why is this happening in ginger villain?

One thing to note.
I live in a flat and therefore the wifi signal has always been quite low BUT it has always connected without any problems.
Could it be that GV 2.3 decreases wifi signal strength?

I have flashed the latest radio and ril which seems to have fixed it.
But now I am getting graphical issues as the screen is flashing and acting very weird on certain apps.

Anyone got any ideas?

I'm currently on 1.3 GV and have the same issue with the Wifi, about to try a different Kernel to see if it helps.
I've also noticed a decreased signal, I can be standing right next to my router and not receiving absolute full signal... Think it may be a ROM issue?
You have to remember these ROMs ain't perfect and each one seems to have it's flaws, but the dev's are getting there!

What kernel will you try?

Strange. I have no problem with wi-fi. Signal as well as on the stock rom. In the router logs no disconnects.
Kernel: 1.6 HAVS 1113Mhz + BFS from Villain setup
Radio: 32.44.00.32H_5.09.05.30_2

It is very strange, I have tried different radio's but still can't fix it.
Under normal internet use, it is quite difficult to tell that the connection has dis connected and reconnected as it only takes a few.seconds.
When using Skype or Google talk, you can tell and its very annoying.

Did you manage to fix this with a different kernel?

I am so glad I have finally found someone with the same issue as me! I have a relatively weak wifi signal (distance) from my hub to my room where I use my desire. On apps like youtube or bbc iplayer, it would suddenly turn off wifi and then reconnect all of a sudden. It meant watching anything with these apps is a nightmare. And I have always had it set to wifi sleep - never. I have never had this problem with any other ROM and I have tried loads. I originally put it down to my already tempermental internet, but I have now ruled this out. This is specifically a GV ROM issue.
GV 1.0 - 1.4 all had the same issue. Then, yesterday much to my surprise I saw in the 1.5 change log that one of the changes was that 1.5 "should fix the wifi sleep bug".
Last night, I tried iPlayer as usual, but I believe the problem still persists. I now don't know what to do. I will try resetting the wifi hub to defaults and so on, but I really don't think it will make a difference. I could try flashing a new kernal, but again I don't see how it would make a difference. Then I thought maybe a new radio, but I don't see the need. I'm using the latest official desire radio, and it works flawlessly on everything else.
So, I'm out of ideas, and my patience is slowly dying. I love the ROM for all its worth. It works perfectly, except for this. But for me, stable wifi is a deal breaker. I might need to try something else like amethyst.

Yes, sounds exactly like my problem. There Is a problem with Ginger villain as it works fine on other Roms.
I have tried so many different kernel's, radios and ril's but to no luck.
The only last solution I can think of other than to change rom is to try the modaco kernel. But the problem with that is, its not available seperately so we need someone to extract it from the rom.

I've got a strange issue with my HTC Desire and GV 2.5 :
at home, it doesn't even detect my Wifi (others devices do, of course), while at work it works perfectly.
The security is the same (WPA2/AES) between work and home, so I don't see any explanation... do you think it can be caused by the channel used ?

Anyone got Teamviewer working

I used Teamviewer on my HTC Desire without any problems but I can't get it to load on the S2. Anyone had any luck with this?
http://www.teamviewer.com

no problem with this app, works good but sometimes i have to disconnect and reconnect because the desktop is not shown

Working fine for me. I use it on 3g and wifi with no probs. at all.
I have tryed it on Villian 1.1 Rom, and Lightning Rom 1.3

Thanks for the replies, but now I'm at a loss as to why I can't run it on my S2... I just get a black screen and nothing happens...

i also have it working on my SGSII with villainRom 1.2 with no problems(may be a bit slow but could be i need to practice more xD) via wi-fi...i havent try it via 3G, could that be your problem?

No problem for me either. just used it few minutes ago while eating outside. everything was okay on wifi and 3g as well.

It's working alright... Download it from the Market
Navigate to settings. Place a check mark against Remove wallpaper and set the Quality to Optimized Speed

Working On my SGS 2 Superbly Fine!

working with no problem, Official ROM KE7, rooted...

Is there something wrong with my phone then?
When I run it, it just hangs at a black screen and then it force closes.
Anyone got any idea what could be causing this? I'm really missing teamviewer!

Perfect on Litening 1.4

Been doing some digging and it seems that I am not the only one having this problem, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=851423
But I can't anything in common for the people that it doesn't work for... I'm going to find a tightVNC client for the time being. Real shame because I've been using teamviewer on about 20 desktops till now

no problem on cognition s2.
sent from my SGSII via T*patalk

What ROM r u using, Its working fine on my Device..

Running stock KE7 rooted using CF-Root v4.0

Im having problems with it as well... villainRom 1.0
It works with 3G connection but stuck on "Connecting to server - please wait" when I try to work via wifi.
Might be that I am trying to work via my company wifi. Should make no difference as it works from wifi laptop to the PC.
Might be I missed some configuration?

Works great for me. Just on the stock setup.

Working fine while i checked through wifi. But i couldnt do any mouse clicks, dont know why.

its working without problems on me.
tested with stock rom,lightining 1.4/1.5, cognition 1.7/1.8 all without problem on 3G and wifi.

Installed bulk standard from teamviewer site on Galaxy S2. No problems. Works like dream. How functional/uesful it is is another matetr on such a small screen !
But it works.

Slight issues with CM9/ICS

Hi guys,
I rooted and flashed CM7.2 a few weeks ago, and I was hooked so last weekend I flashed CM9 RC1 and this morning I flashed CM9 RC2.
Two issues I'm having: Adaway worked perfectly on CM7.2 whether I was using wifi or mobile data. Now, it only works with wifi in CM9. I get that it's not supposed to work as well with connections like 3G but is there a way to get the perfect track record back that it had in CM7.2? I've checked the log for suspicious DNS requests and there's nothing showing up other than google and my carrier.
Also, Fast for Facebook http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1581371&highlight=fast+facebook only works now when I have a wifi connection
Are these two issues radio related (I'm a noob, so I have no idea) now that I've upgraded to ICS? My radio as it reads in the bootloader is 26.03.02.26_M (I'm with Bell). Should I be looking at the .19 radio I've seen people mention?
Thanks!
