BerryLicio.us Ultimate hybrid for most OS 7.1 devices
- I did some experiments, too. I just went outside and tried BB Maps and the location refresh thingy. And both are really inaccurate. I got measurements on the maps between 28 meters. With the original OS I got some 7 meters.
The refreshment is even worse: "accuracy" of about 100m, even outside. :/ Any thoughts about that?
For an amateur like me it sounds quite odd as it's the same hardware (and most likely the same drivers)...

Yes, shrunk all fonts other than Latin.
Just been doing some experimenting, it only affects attachments sent to my bt internet account.
If I send to my g.mail account attachement comes through as a word doc and docs to go reads it fine.
Very strange indeed !!!

- There is now an Asia .912 available for the 9900.
Maybe the smaller .sfi may work better for some ?

Ditching 861 base + 714 SFI + RC14B2 (non .8xx one with fixed TCP settings) which was working so smoothly. At first i tried plain .912 and it was working fine but i think my network was having issues in the morning and I blamed the 912 SFI so decided to load 912 base again but with 714 SFI and thats where problems started. Phone loads it and all but upon rebooting I get white screen with 602 error i think and option "reset". Tried it again thinking something went wrong somewhere and upon reboot same issue. cant afford such downtime so I just loaded 861 again with 714 base and rc14b2. Never gotten that error before. Strange indeed. Sadly now that I see even with my current mix I have little to no network I"m now thinking perhaps I judged 912 too harshly. Will try to reload it again. Will 912 base + 714 sfi work with rc14b2 or should i rather stick with 912base+sfi and rc14b?04-13-13 05:56 AMLike 0

May I ask you how your GPS works? I still have issues with that (and not working at all, at the moment).

GPS reception is also degraded when the receiver isn't in an open area, causing difficulty getting a good fix or maintaining a good fix. GPS relies upon signals from multiple satellites. If the receiver is obstructed from the sky by trees or a building (even to one side) or is inside a vehicle, causing there to not be at least 3 satellites in clear view, the reported position may be very inaccurate or the receiver may not report a position at all. The best way to find out if a receiver is working properly is to leave it stationary for 20-30 minutes in an area with an unobstructed view of the sky. If necessary, you can put the phone in a zip-lock bag to protect it from the elements. If it doesn't get a lock after 20-30 minutes, try pulling the battery. If it doesn't get a good lock after that, there may be a hardware problem.deezy87 likes this.04-13-13 03:23 PMLike 1

There are A LOT of variables when you're trying to lock onto your GPS.
I have also bolded and underlined some important parts of my homie, bimmerdriver's post, please pay attention! LOL.
