you may need to reset the GPS --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239090
Or you can try the New PWGB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242747 once I installed that, my GPS was locking on in 3 seconds.

Whose using the new MIUI build as a DD?

How is it working for you? Any bugs and issues that make it a deal breaker right now?
Read the first post of the miui thread and you will find out all you need to know.

I'm using it as my dd. Everything seems OK minus no gps or mms.. But I do have issues sometimes where bluetooth doesn't automatically find my stereo in car it takes a few min to find it.
It's really fast.. Just read the thread there are fixes even tho temporary to the missing calls and text issue and themes.

Would use it except that I can't receive calls when phone sleeps. It is otherwise seriously sweet. Will go back for sure once this is fixed. Great work by andmer.

I have been using it for my DD for a couple days, the OP has all the bugs listed but mine for some reason recieves calls while in sleep and SMS too!... but I also still suffer from all the other listed bugs. I also noted that my vvm wont work..just gets stuck trying to register my device and then says that I have no data connection! Oh well I'm not worried about it, when the devs get it finalized I'm sure it will be fine..they are awesome! Also im using nemsis' kernel and its the first time my phone will run over 1.2ghz...its stable at 1.4ghz! and if it matters...2260 quadrants!
Edit: sorry thought this was in refference to cm7....lol I swear I didn't gloss over the title! Sorry for the clutter

I loved it but I had extremely low in call volume that made it impossible for us to hear eachother while on a call. Never found a fix

MIUI is using CM7(and has the same problems) and MIUIwiz is still on a tw rom so that is a huge difference. Other than that I don't know why your data would do that I haven't used MIUI but I'm on CM7 and it works for me (on verizon)

In the CM7 thread some one listed an app SoftLocker which makes it so your phone doesn't go into deep sleep, more battery drain but calls are nice to get. It's working for me with CM7.
I have soft locker on my phone and not noticing a bad battery drain. Maybe I am lucky or blind lol

[Q] Does your Note flash on and off quicky at midnight?

I have a Rogers Galaxy Note, rooted, but running stock.
Every night, at exactly midnight, it flashes on and off very quickly.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Nope

YES
I do not know, I'm always sleeping at midnight. In the words of Bette Davis "Gettin' old ain't fer sissies!"
I'm usually up around midnight and I have not seen this. I'm on an AT&T Note though.
Your Note is possessed lol

What rom are u using? Maybe flash a different ron to see if a software issue. Or do a factory reset.

I'm running the default stock Rogers rom.
If you're on the east coast, midnight is coming up. Check it. To test, just have your phone locked and screen off at midnight, and watch it. It doesn't reboot.. just flashes on and off quickly.
It's quite possible there is an app I have installed that is doing this, so tonight I plan on checking it with logcat. I'll report my findings afterward (PST).
You sure its not notifying you something but I would go with the posses idea. I see dead people comes to mind.

doh! i was coding and forgot to plug in and check logcat. tune in tomorrow. sorry.
Its probably some app scheduled to do something at midnight over your wifi.
I know my Captivate used to do the same thing, any time the wifi was used, the screen would turn on briefly (less than a second) and turn off the screen while doing whatever it was doing over the wifi (like Beyondpod when it went to update my podcasts, the screen blinked on/off, then immediately after the screen turned off, it started checking for new episodes and downloading).
So it's either APOD, or it's my system. Those are the only two culprits. I'll uninstall APOD and report back tomorrow.

Screen randomly turning on.

I've got an issue and would love some feedback from the community. I just got a replacement DX2 and threw CM7 RC1 on, same as I did with my old phone. On this phone though I did flash the new mashup. For some reason when I shut my screen off it keeps turning it self back on over and over again. It does it when it feels like. I've done a battery pull and wiped dalvik/cache. Any suggestions?

Never had that happen, personally. Also running CM7RC1 with the mashup. Could it possibly be an app that's turning the screen back on?

I had this issue and discovered I had a couple apps that used something called airpush. Anyway, don't really remember exactly what it does but there's an app called airpush detector I downloaded that will tell you which apps you have that have it. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the quick replies guys, I just flashed the stock cm7 build.prop and so far no more screen gremlins.

I got twenty satellites per gps status (the app). Never saw anything like it.

It's freakishly accurate. I was doing a number 2, playing with my phone with the GPS on. When I opened the map, I had a birds eye view of myself pooping.
insanely accurate and locks in the second i open the app. my galaxy nexus would struggle sometimes to get a lock but this thing is locked before i even open the app lol
Does anybody know if it possible to use this gps kernel on other phones cause my other phones dont have a gps this damn good if so how to I copy the kernel of the gps on here?

I've only messed with it once so far. It was very quick to find my position. I'm looking forward to using it when I go visit family in a week. Since I got about 24 hours drive one way, it will get some good road use.
