GPS problem most likely. Tonnes of threads on this forum explaining how to fix it.

Yeah, its a known issue for some people with CM7.
There are a couple different fixes that have worked/not worked for different people. So your mileage may vary. See the thread below, and its also been thoroughly discussed in the CM7 thread.

CM6 Missing Apps??

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

[Q] cyanogenmod ROM (cdma) issue

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.

Two things preventing me from...

going back to ICS.
1st is the heating issue. I remember this being a huge issue with my HTC Touch Pro 2 back in the day.
2nd is roaming guard.
With Gingerbread, I can turn off the roam guard for calls and data. When I tried one of the first ICS builds at the beginning of this month (March), I couldn't find that anywhere. I live in an area where I am constantly roaming and it gets annoying to do the step of acknowledging that I am roaming before answering or placing a call.
Anyone know of any fixes?
Don't have either of these. On on Mijjah rom 3.1 and roam guard is in the settings and my phone never gets hot. Maybe u should try it again.

I see that you a somewhat a new member...so ill try to be nice Might I suggest posting in a thread already relating to the ics ROM(s) you are having problems with.... They may have fixes already or it may be a known issue....
Rather than post a thread... Try searching for your problem.... (if you did im sorry but im sure most would agree this thread is "clutter"...... Props for not posting this in the development section)
As for you problems I experience not one with fc18

Anytime I've ever been flagged to allow roaming it has offered me the choice of never seeing the message again. Does your phone give you that message?

Got to agree do do t see the reason for your thread especially if the last time you tried ICS was a month ago. Your problems I have never seen. I tried CM9 and Gummy/Codename. Try it again...... simple solution

also fc22 does not have any heating issues at fc15/fc18 in my usage.
Also, these threads are pointless, its well known that ICS are still in test build stages. If you dont wanna deal with the bugs, then DONT!!!!
sorry about the thread guys and thank you for the replies.
my answer wasnt really answered on the roaming issue but I think I will go ahead and flash a ROM again. Maybe 4.04 will address that issue.

Im pretty sure the later builds have solved that problem (roam guard off setting either missing or not 'sticking') the only time I have had the roam guard keep annoying me (after selecting dont bother me again) turned out there was other issues as well, and probly a bad flash/download. Try the newer versions. Oh and if you did indeed search, posting in the form of a question in the Q&A section usually gets less flaming... good luck.

if you think anyone flammed in this thread you must have missed the Bubby incident... Or never seen the evo 4g before gb.....

Thge options for roaming didnt come in until fc07 i believe. Before that there wasnt even a menu option for roaming at all.
In all the current builds fc14 and higher i can confirm having the option to turn roaming on or off and to have romaing guard on voice or data
This was my first thought

[Q] How exactly do you fix GPS on CM9?

I'm on CM9 A5 about to ugprade to A6.
However, my GPS won't lock. Navigation keeps saying "Searching for GPS". I have a trip I need GPS for in about 2 hrs and it will suck if I cannot get it to work.
I searched and it's something about flashing to gingerbread? I couldn't find any clear instructions on what exactly I would have to do though. How can I do that from CM9? Would I loose my data? I spent 2hrs configuring tretchbucket and stuff, hopefully I won't have to wipe in order to fix my GPS.
Can someone explain please?
Dont take this the wrong way but I am not sure where you were searching because the answers are associated with the CM9 thread and clearly noted unfortunately in too many places throughout the web and this section of the forum...
All the questions you have asked are all answered in the directions.... Gotta change up your words when searching which may help... This is part of the install guide section under tools
Not trying to flame just that this question is an easy one

I understand. I should have searched a bit more about what emmc actually is so I knew how it worked. I got what I needed, many thanks for the swift answer and my apologies for not searching more.

Thanks! I tried the flashable zip, however the GPS didn't lock.
I followed the temporary emmc boot, locked on using that, and now my GPS is working flawlessly and locking very quickly.

"Cannot connect to camera" error?

I'm using the task and ktoonsez's aokp jb ROM and posted in the Q&A thread but seems to be buried under the other questions. So I'm wondering if anybody else is experiencing this problem with other ROMs as well? I did a search on Google but got mixed results. Some say it's a driver issue while others say it might be defective hardware.
I did a fullwipe before installing the custom ROM and had no problem for about a day. Now I get this error repeatedly. Numerous reboots will get it to work again, but not for long.
Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.

why wouldnt you just ask it again then? i see no reason to start a new thread for it dude. camera works awesome. redownload the rom, fully wipe your device, and then reflash.
Sorry task. I didn't get ant to post the same question again and again if nobody else is having the problem. Might as well post it here to see if it could be a hardware issue.

no worries. sometimes there will be a million posts all at once so i end up missing some. if you ask a question and i dont get to it in a few hours or nobody helps you out, just bump it one more time. I will usually see it and answer the question if i have the time or an answer to give.
