Root [ROM][OA]2.3.20 [Final] [EXT4 + RFS] [Updated: 09/23/12]

I have pointed this out before that there appear to be differences between the revisions with regards to GPS fucntionality even though the primary files all seem to be the same size (but maybe with different dates). There could be library differences though that im not aware of.

As youre having startup time issues, its quite possible that the metropcs admire does not support AGPS while the newer vitality does. You may want to test to see if your are recieving agsp data. You can request it via GPS test but at the same time you should have logcat or similar app running to test to see its pulling the data which only takes a matter of seconds.

Remember when your testing Standalone GPS fucntionality to go into airplane mode so that there is no location support from the Data network otherwise triangulation will also occur here, auto agps support may also be provided as there are gps chips in the cell towers. In addition ensure that wifi is toggled off as youll receive an approximate location via your IP address (whatismyipaddress.com).

I guess you could fash EH02 stock or EH09, i think there is only a nandroid backup only for the latter though, and then install this rom. If youre on cricket, flash the corporate utility and then this rom.

my ROM comes with a DSP manager that can achieve the same results as the beats audio mods (more or less). Conversely you can install my beats audio flash zip (located at the bottom of my original thread [follow link in OP Post]). I have had great luck with is not crashing any apks that use EQs (albeit the eq's are useless due to the beats audio mods).

Good Luck!

I just flashed the room and tried restoring the APn file but i still cant access the internet. help? I did flash the MMS Fix also after I flashed the OS. Does it take awhile for my browser to work after a fresh flash? I didnt get any 492 errors, I see a 3g icon and bars, just cant connect on my browsers. My google play store works and everything.

Well I thought I would say thank you for this great rom. I love how it is built and runs. It is much better than all the roms I have tried, I intend to keep it.

I also will say that overclocked it runs perfect, the only issue I personally have are as follows:

1) When I exit a phonecall (press end) I occasionally see my phone automatically restarting. Not so much a issue for me as I rarely use my phone for calling, more so for text and internet which have zero issues.

2) I am running eh02 baseband and my Gps is off, not much, but it shows me a street over whenever I run it. If I am looking at the map in static mode, not compass mode, it shows me a few meters off to the left on all areas. Not a huge issue also as I do not rely on gps but I thought you should know.

3) The fact that I have no other issue is a issue to me, it upsets me. I am clearly angry that you have done such great work......

:)

So how can we fix the connection for the browsers :rolleyes:
I did a wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache, and then I flashed the rom. After the rom finished flashing, I flashed the MMS Fix, and when the rom first booted up, I waited like 30 minutes before I tried to open the stock browser. After I noticed my stock browser was working, that's when I connected my googleplay/email account.
